Recognizing commonly used data structures and algorithms is a key activity in reverse engineering. Systems developed to automate this recognition process have been isolated, stand...
This paper investigates how vector time can be used to set breakpoints in distributed computations for the purpose of analyzing and debugging distributed programs. A breakpoint is ...
We present an approach to dealing with skew in parallel joins in database systems. Our approach is easily implementable within current parallel DBMS, and performs well on skewed d...
