In database query processing, actual run-time conditions (e.g., actual selectivities and actual available memory) very often differ from compile-time expectations of run-time cond...
It is now common for multimedia applications to be partitioned and mapped onto multiple processing elements of a system-on-chip architecture. An important design constraint in suc...
The advent of affordable, shared-nothing computing systems portends a new class of parallel database management systems (DBMS) for on-line transaction processing (OLTP) applicatio...
—In this paper a new ADC architecture of flash type is proposed. This proposed N-bit flash ADC replaces the (2N -1)-toN encoder with two (2N/2 -1)-to-(N/2) encoders to accomplish...
Recent technological advances have opened up several distributed real-time applications involving battery-driven embedded devices with local processing and wireless communication ...
