Abstract. The Monte-Carlo Tree Search algorithm has been successfully applied in various domains. However, its performance heavily depends on the Monte-Carlo part. In this paper, w...
This paper focuses on parallel query optimization. We consider the operator problem and introduce a new class of execution strategies called Linear-Oriented Bushy Trees (LBTs). Co...
We propose a concurrent relaxed balance AVL tree algorithm that is fast, scales well, and tolerates contention. It is based on optimistic techniques adapted from software transact...

We present a new evaluation criterion for the induction of decision trees. We exploit a parameter-free Bayesian approach and propose an analytic formula for the evaluation of the p...
Maxn (Luckhardt and Irani, 1986) is the extension of the minimax backup rule to multi-player games. We have shown that only a limited version of alpha-beta pruning, shallow prunin...
