Abstract. Software systems obey the 80/20 rule: aggressively optimizing a vital few execution paths yields large speedups. However, finding the vital few paths can be difficult, e...
Energy costs are quickly rising in large-scale data centers and are soon projected to overtake the cost of hardware. As a result, data center operators have recently started turni...

Complex database queries require the use of memory-intensive operators like sort and hashjoin. Those operators need memory, also referred to as SQL memory, to process their input ...
In this paper, we explore the problem of mapping filtering services on large-scale heterogeneous platforms. Two important optimization criteria should be considered in such a fra...
The revelation principle is a cornerstone tool in mechanism design. It states that one can restrict attention, without loss in the designer’s objective, to mechanisms in which A...
