Since the beginning of the multi-core era, database systems research has restarted focusing on increasing concurrency. Even though database systems have been able to accommodate concurrent requests, the exploding number of available cores per chip has surf ...
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 ...
Mammals adapt to a rapidly changing world because of the sophisticated perceptual and cognitive function enabled by the neocortex. The neocortex, which has expanded to constitute nearly 80% of the human brain seems to have arisen from repeated duplication ...
Two important models for building fault-tolerant applications have been independently proposed in the literature, the {\em transaction} model (developed within the context of database applications) and the {\em virtual synchrony} model (proposed initially ...
There are many database applications that require users to coordinate and communicate. Friends want to coordinate travel plans, students want to jointly enroll in the same set of courses, and busy professionals want to coordinate their schedules. These tas ...
Saturated critical heat flux (CHF) is an important issue during flow boiling in mini and microchannels. To determine the best prediction method available in the literature, 2996 data points from 19 different laboratories have been collected since 1958. The ...
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 ...
We present an MPEG7 compliant description of generic video sequences aiming at their scalable transmission and reconstruction. The proposed method allows efficient and flexible video coding while keeping the advantages of textual descriptions in database ...
The present invention proposes a method to filter electronic messages in a message processing system, this message processing system comprising a temporary memory for storing the received messages intended to users, a first database dedicated to a specific ...
Distributed computing is reshaping the way people think about and do daily life activities. On-line ticket reservation, electronic commerce, and telebanking are examples of services that would be hardly imaginable without distributed computing. Nevertheles ...
