Theory and Practice of Transactional Method Caching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Nowadays, tiered architectures are widely accepted for constructing large scale information systems. In this context application servers often form the bottleneck for a system's efficiency.

Automating Algorithm Experiments With ALGator: From Problem Modeling to Reproducible Results

open access: yesSoftware: Practice and Experience, Volume 56, Issue 1, Page 26-41, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Theoretical algorithm analysis provides fundamental insights into algorithm complexity but relies on simplified and often outdated computational models. Experimental algorithmics complements this approach by evaluating the empirical performance of algorithm implementations on real data and modern computing platforms.

Selective, accurate, and timely self-invalidation using last-touch prediction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Communication in cache-coherent distributed shared memory (DSM) often requires invalidating (or writing back) cached copies of a memory block, incurring high overheads.

DRL‐Based Joint Clustering and Trajectory Optimization for UAV‐Assisted Emergency Networks

open access: yesIET Communications, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
6G is expected to see unprecedented data traffic surges. UAV‐assisted MEC aids emergency communications but faces challenges from dynamic user mobility and heterogeneous tasks. To address these, the proposed KM‐PPO integrates interference‐aware k‐means clustering (for user aggregation and initial UAV deployment) and PPO (for stable policy updates and ...

Library Cache Coherence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Directory-based cache coherence is a popular mechanism for chip multiprocessors and multicores. The directory protocol, however, requires multicast for invalidation messages and the collection of acknowledgement messages, which can be expensive in terms ...

SubeYa: A System for Predicting Passenger Demand at Train Stations

open access: yesIET Intelligent Transport Systems, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This study addresses the challenges of urban congestion and long wait times within EL1ML by introducing SubeYa, a web‐based platform designed to predict passenger demand. By utilizing the Prophet predictive model and analysing historical data from 2019 to 2025, the system achieves a global MAE of 259.10.

A hitchhiker's guide to modern, practical cyanobacterial taxonomy

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, Volume 61, Issue 6, Page 1536-1552, December 2025.
Abstract There has been an explosion of new Cyanobacterial taxa described within the last two decades. Cyanobacteria exhibit incredible ecological versatility and morphological variability, and thousands of species have already been described using “traditional” approaches (e.g., morphological features).

Cache Serializability: Reducing Inconsistency in Edge Transactions

open access: yes, 2015
Read-only caches are widely used in cloud infrastructures to reduce access latency and load on backend databases. Operators view coherent caches as impractical at genuinely large scale and many client-facing caches are updated in an asynchronous manner ...
