—In the offshore engineering community, reliable deep-water anchor performance is critical for mooring floating platforms such as Mobile Offshore Drilling Units. In a typical in...
In this paper we present the application of an evolution strategy to the problem of detecting multi-planet transit events in photometric time-data series. Planetary transits occur...
We have built an eight node SMP cluster called COMPaS (Cluster Of Multi-Processor Systems), each node of which is a quadprocessor Pentium Pro PC. We have designed and implemented a...
Simulating distributed database systems is inherently difficult, as there are many factors that may influence the results. This includesarchitectural options as well as workload...
Emerging database application domains demand not only new functionality but also high performance. To satisfy these two requirements, the Volcano project provides efficient, exten...
