Abstract. Generic functions are defined by induction on the structural representation of types. As a consequence, by defining just a single generic operation, one acquires this o...
— Research on query optimization has traditionally focused on exhaustive enumeration of an exponential number of candidate plans. Alternatively, heuristics for query optimization...
Abstract—Video simulcasting enables a sender to generate replicated streams of different rates, serving receivers of diverse access bandwidths. As replication introduces noticeab...
Differential Evolution (DE) is a novel evolutionary approach capable of handling non-differentiable, non-linear and multi-modal objective functions. DE has been consistently ranked...
Software component techniques are widely used to enhance productivity and reduce the cost of software systems development. This paper proposes optimization of component connections...
