We present a formal analysis of the database layout problem, i.e., the problem of determining how database objects such as tables and indexes are assigned to disk drives. Optimizin...
Despite many years of research, fair queuing still faces a number of implementation challenges in high speed routers. In particular, in spite of proposals such as DiffServ, the st...
The problem of selecting the best system from a finite set of alternatives is considered from a Bayesian decision-theoretic perspective. The framework presented is quite general,...
