2007 Third-Order Computation and Bounded Arithmetic
abstract
Abstract. We describe a natural generalization of ordinary computation to a third-order setting and give a function calculus with nice properties and recursion-theoretic characterizations of several large complexity classes. We then present a number of third-order theories of bounded arithmetic whose definable functions are the classes of the EXP-time hierarchy in the third-order setting.

2000 DB2 Advisor: An Optimizer Smart Enough to Recommend Its Own Indexes
abstract
This paper introduces the concept of letting an RDBMS optimizer optimize its own environment. In our project, we have used the DB2 optimizer to tackle the index selection problem, a variation of the knapsack problem. This paper discusses our implementation of index recommendation, the user interface, and provide measurements on the quality of the recommended indexes.
