Scheduling query execution plans is an important component of query optimization in parallel database systems. The problem is particularly complex in a shared-nothing execution en...

R-tree based spatial join is useful because of both its superior performance and the wide spread implementation of R-trees. We present a new R-tree join method called BFRJ (Breadt...
In this paper we show how to extend Coloured Petri Nets (CP-nets), with three new modelling primitives—place capacities, test arcs and inhibitor arcs. The new modelling primitiv...
In current research, the minimum cycle times of finite state machines are estimated by computing the delays of the combinational logic in the finite state machines. Even though th...
