We study the complexity of approximating the smallest eigenvalue of −∆ + q with Dirichlet boundary conditions on the d-dimensional unit cube. Here ∆ is the Laplacian, and th...
Estimates of predicate selectivities by database query optimizers often differ significantly from those actually encountered during query execution, leading to poor plan choices a...
Several recent studies have proposed methods to accelerate the receipt of a file by downloading its parts from different servers in parallel. The schemes suggested in most propose...
File swarming (or file sharing) is one of the most important applications in P2P networks. In this paper, we propose a stochastic framework to analyze a file swarming system und...

While traditional link layer protocols assume that they fully control the underlying link, in contemporary wireless networks the link may be dynamically shared by sessions belongin...
