This paper focuses on parallel query optimization. We consider the operator problem and introduce a new class of execution strategies called Linear-Oriented Bushy Trees (LBTs). Co...
The design and synthesis of asynchronous circuits is gaining importance in both the industrial and academic worlds. Timed circuits are a class of asynchronous circuits that incorp...
Timing budgeting under process variations is an important step in a statistical optimization flow. We propose a novel formulation of the problem where budgets are statistical ins...
— It has been known since the early 1990s that backpressure-type algorithms for communication networks (such as the Max-Weight algorithm) can be used to approximately solve stati...
—In a previous paper [4], we described an approach to improve the performance of the M/M/2 system by replacing its homogeneous servers with heterogeneous servers. Denoting by β ...
