Statistics play an important role in influencing the plans produced by a query optimizer. Traditionally, optimizers use statistics built over base tables and assume independence b...
Traditional approaches for sequential logic optimization include (1) explicit state-based techniques such as state minimization, (2) structural techniques such as retiming, and (3...
This paper1 provides a motivation for the application of search based optimization to Software Engineering, an area that has come to be known as Search Based Software Engineering (...
We study the problem of optimal preemptive scheduling with respect to a general target function. Given n jobs with associated weights and m ≤ n uniformly related machines, one a...
