Communicating Evolving Algebras
We develop the rst steps of a theory of concurrency within the framework of evolving algebras of Gurevich, with the aim of investigating its suitability for the role of a general f...

Adaptive Binary Sorting Schemes and Associated Interconnection Networks
Many routing problems in parallel processing, such as concentration and permutation problems, can be cast as sorting problems. In this paper, we consider the problem of sorting on ...

Using Segmented Right-Deep Trees for the Execution of Pipelined Hash Joins
In this paper, we explore the execution of pipelined hash joins in a multiprocessor-based database system. To improve the query execution, an innovative approach on query executio...
