We study the problem of e cient maintenance of materialized views that may contain duplicates. This problem is particularly important when queries against such views involve aggre...
Many temporal applications like planning and scheduling can be viewed as special cases of the numeric and symbolic temporal constraint satisfaction problem. Thus we have developed ...
In this research project, an integration of multi-agent technology and optimization techniques is suggested for the combined production and transport planning problem in a transpo...
Abstract. The paper presents a new distributed Multilevel Ant Stigmergy Algorithm (MASA) for minimizing the power losses in an electric motor by optimizing the independent geometri...
We address the problem of finding parallel plans for SQL queries using the two-phase approach of join ordering and query rewrite (JOQR) followed by parallelization. We focus on t...
