Many system-level design tasks (e.g. timing analysis, hardware/software partitioning and design space exploration) involve computational kernels that are intractable (usually NP-ha...
With increasing chip densities, future microprocessor designs have the opportunity to integrate many of the traditional systemlevel modules onto the same chip as the processor. So...
—There is an ever-increasing demand for more complex transactions and higher throughputs in transaction processing systems leading to higher degrees of transaction concurrency an...
Abstract. The increase in accessability to on-line visual data has promoted the interest in browsing and retrieval of images from Image Databases. Current approaches assume either ...
Real-time databases are needed in security-critical applications, e.g., e-commerce, agile manufacturing, and military applications. In these applications, transactions and data it...
