Database query optimizers rely on data statistics in selecting query execution plans. Similar query optimization techniques are desirable for deductive databases and, to make this...
—Shared cache allocation policies play an important role in determining CMP performance. The simplest policy, LRU, allocates cache implicitly as a consequence of its replacement ...
Background: The modeling of dynamic systems requires estimating kinetic parameters from experimentally measured time-courses. Conventional global optimization methods used for par...
— The Redundancy Allocation Problem (RAP) is a kind of reliability optimization problems. It involves the selection of components with appropriate levels of redundancy or reliabi...
