Exploring Index and Query Optimization Techniques for Database Applications
(2016-05-05)
Database index can be regarded as a data structure that speed up the data retrieval operations on a database table. The cost of indexing in database is additional writes and storage space to maintain the data structure. ...
A Location-Based Indoor Recommendation System Using A Hidden Markov Model
(2016-05-02)
Recommendation systems play an important role in both the industrial and the academic worlds because they can combine theoretical study and market use together perfectly. Through improving user experience, recommendation ...
A Model-Driven Engineering Framework for Computational Replicability and Reproducibility
(2016-02-11)
The scientific community currently suffers from a lack of verification of results obtained from many well-intentioned researchers. Part of the reason for this lack is the difficulty in reproducing experiments performed by ...
Energy Profiles of Java Collections Classes
(2016-04-22)
We created detailed profiles of the energy consumed by common operations done on Java List, Map, and Set abstractions. The results show that the alternative data types for these abstractions differ significantly in terms ...
Assessment of Multiple Ingest Strategies for Accumulo Key-Value Store
(2016-05-05)
In recent years, the emergence of heterogeneous data, especially of the unstructured type, has been extremely rapid. The data growth happens concurrently in 3 dimensions: volume (size), velocity (growth rate) and variety ...
Thermal Management and Data Archiving in Data Centers
(2016-05-06)
This dissertation is focused on thermal and resource management of data centers. Recognizing that there is the lack of comprehensive benchmarks for thermal management in the context of cluster computing in data centers, ...
