In this paper, we discuss the cache replacement policy in a multimedia transcoding proxy. Unlike the cache replacement for conventional web objects, to replace some elements with ...
Declustering and replication are well known techniques used to improve response time of queries in parallel disk environments. As data replication incurs a penalty for updates, da...
In field environments it is not usually possible to provide robots in advance with valid geometric models of its environment and task element locations. The robot or robot teams ne...
We consider the problem of collectively approximating a set of sensor signals using the least amount of space so that any individual signal can be efficiently reconstructed within...
Query optimizers that explore a search space exhaustively using transformation rules usually apply all possible rules on each alternative, and stop when no new information is prod...
