Many analytics applications generate mixed workloads, i.e., workloads comprised of analytical tasks with different processing characteristics including data pre-processing, SQL, and iterative machine learning algorithms. Examples of such mixed workloads ca ...
The explosive growth in digital data and its growing role in real-time analytics motivate the design of high-performance database management systems (DBMSs). Meanwhile, slowdown in supply voltage scaling has stymied improvements in core performance and ush ...
Currently smart meter data analytics has received enormous attention because it allows utility companies to analyze customer consumption behavior in real time. However, the amount of data generated by these sensors is very large. As a result, analytics per ...
An analytical approach to determine the in-plane stress field and thereby the lateral contraction of composite rectangular plates subjected to partially uniform tension is presented. This approach is based on the Green function hypothesis and is able to ac ...
An earlier infiltration equation relied on curve fitting of infiltration data for the determination of one of the parameters, which limits its usefulness in practice. This handicap is removed here, and the parameter is now evaluated by linking it directly ...
