The Adaptive Parallelism Environment is introduced as a means of effectively utilizing MPP processing resources in a multi-programmed MIMD or distributed system. It achieves this...
Distributed applications that can adapt at runtime to changing quality of service (QoS) require a model of the expected QoS and of the possible application adaptations. QoS models ...
An estimation algorithm for a query is a probabilistic algorithm that computes an approximation for the size (number of tuples) of the query. One class of estimation algorithms us...
E cient and powerful topologically adaptable deformable surfaces can be created by embedding and de ning discrete deformable surface models in terms of an A ne Cell Decomposition (...
We present a framework for integrated scheduling of continuous media (CM) and other applications. The framework, called ARC scheduling, consists of a rate-controlled on-line CPU sc...
