Let S be a set of n intervals in R, and let (S, +) be any commutative semigroup. We assign a weight ω(s) ∈ S to each interval in S. For a point x ∈ R, let S(x) ⊆ S be the se...

In an uncertain data set S = (S, p, f) where S is the ground set consisting of n elements, p : S → [0, 1] a probability function, and f : S → R a score function, each element i...
We present the Buffer Heap (BH), a cache-oblivious priority queue that supports Delete-Min, Delete, and Decrease-Key operations in O( 1 B log2 N B ) amortized block transfers fro...
Given a set of n points S in the plane, a triangulation of S is a subdivision of the convex hull into triangles whose vertices are from S. In the kinetic setting, the input point ...
The B-tree is a fundamental external index structure that is widely used for answering one-dimensional range reporting queries. Given a set of N keys, a range query can be answere...
