abstract mathematics. My mentor was Professor S. Bochner, a distinguished contributor to harmonic analysis. My classmates included Richard Bellman (who later nurtured the method of...
We describe a simple on-line heuristic for scheduling job-shops. We assume there is a fixed set of routes for the jobs, and many jobs, say N, on each route. The heuristic uses saf...
To meet users’ growing needs for accessing pre-existing heterogeneous databases, a multidatabase system (MDBS) integrating multiple databases has attracted many researchers recen...
L. M. Adleman launched the field of DNA computing with a demonstration in 1994 that strands of DNA could be used to solve the Hamiltonian path problem for a simple graph. He also...
Previous research in real-time concurrency control mainly focuses on the schedulability guarantee of hard real-time transactions and the reducing of the miss rate of soft real-tim...
