Genetic algorithms (GAs) have long been used for large join query optimization (LJQO). Previous work takes all queries as based on one granularity to optimize GAs and compares the...
The Cross-Entropy (CE) method is a modern and effective optimization method well suited to parallel implementations. There is a vast array of problems today, some of which are hig...

We consider how simulation metamodels can be used to optimize the performance of a system that depends on a number of factors. We focus on the situation where the number of simula...
We present a novel reasoning calculus for Description Logics (DLs)--knowledge representation formalisms with applications in areas such as the Semantic Web. In order to reduce the ...
Map- and fold-like skeletons are a suitable abstractions to guide parallel program execution in functional array processing. However, when it comes to achieving high performance, i...
