The data distribution problem is very complex, because it involves trade-offdecisions between minimizing communication and maximizing parallelism. A common approach towards solving...
Decision support applications involve complex queries on very large databases. Since response times should be small, query optimization is critical. Users typically view the data ...

A linear array network consists of k + 1 processors P0; P1; : : : ; Pk with links only between Pi and Pi+1 0 i k. It is required to compute some boolean function f x; y in this n...
Generalized speedup is dened as parallel speed over sequential speed. In this paper the generalized speedup and its relation with other existing performance metrics, such as trad...
Ray (segment) shooting is the problem of determining the first intersection between a ray (directed line segment) and a collection of polygonal or polyhedral obstacles. In order t...
