Classifying Material in the Real World

Barbara Caputo

Classifying materials from their appearance is challenging. Impressive results have been obtained under varying illumination and pose conditions. Still, the effect of scale variations and the possibility to generalise across different material samples are ...

Transparent scalable database replication

Sameh Mohamed Elnikety

This thesis demonstrates that, despite earlier projections to the contrary, database replication on a cluster of low-cost commodity servers can transparently scale database performance. In a replicated system providing the standard transactional properties ...

Deferred-update database replication

Rodrigo Malta Schmidt

This thesis is about the design of high-performance fault-tolerant computer systems. More specifically, it focuses on how to develop database systems that behave correctly and with good performance even in the event of failures. Both performance and depend ...

Extending OWL with Explicit Dependency

Jean Paul Calbimonte Perez

Functional Dependency has been extensively studied in database theory. It provides an elegant formalism for specifying key constraints and is the basis for normalization theory used in Relational database design. Given its known axiomatization through logi ...

Queryll: Java Database Queries through Bytecode Rewriting

Willy Zwaenepoel, Christopher Ming-Yee Iu

When interfacing Java with other systems such as databases, programmers must often program in special interface languages like SQL. Code written in these languages often needs to be embedded in strings where they cannot be error-checked at compile-time, or ...

Database Replication Using Generalized Snapshot Isolation

Willy Zwaenepoel, Sameh Mohamed Elnikety, Fernando Pedone

Generalized snapshot isolation extends snapshot isolation as used in Oracle and other databases in a manner suitable for replicated databases. While (conventional) snapshot isolation requires that transactions observe the “latest” snapshot of the database, ...

Pronto: High Availability for Standard Off-the-shelf Databases

Fernando Pedone

Enterprise applications typically store their state in databases. If a database fails, the application is unavailable while the database recovers. Database recovery is time consuming because it involves replaying the persistent transaction log. To isolate ...

Using Code Transformation for Consistent and Transparent Caching of Dynamic Web Content

Willy Zwaenepoel, Sumit Mittal

We present a consistent and transparent caching system for dynamic web pages produced by a server-side application using a back-end database. Cached pages always reflect current database values. No intervention from the programmer is necessary to implement ...

Performance Comparison of Middleware Architectures for Generating Dynamic Web Content

Willy Zwaenepoel, Sameh Mohamed Elnikety, Emmanuel Cecchet

On-line services are making increasing use of dynamically generated Web content. Serving dynamic content is more complex than serving static content. Besides a Web server, it typically involves a server-side application and a database to generate and store ...
