File I/O data is interpreted by high performance parallel/distributed applications mostly as a sequence of arbitrary bits. This leads to the situation where data is ’volatile’...
In nearest neighbor searching we are given a set of n data points in real d-dimensional space, d , and the problem is to preprocess these points into a data structure, so that give...
Massive-scale distributed computing is a challenge at our doorstep. The current exponential growth of data calls for massive-scale capabilities of storage and processing. This is b...
In a sensor network information from multiple nodes must usually be aggregated in order to accomplish a certain task. A natural way to view this information gathering is in terms o...
