The objective of the Maximal Constraint Satisfaction Problem (Max-CSP) is to find an instantiation which minimizes the number of constraint violations in a constraint network. In t...
— In recent years, the research community introduced various methods for processing skyline queries in multidimensional databases. The skyline operator retrieves all objects bein...
A myriad of recent activities can be seen towards dynamic workflow composition for processing complex and data intensive problems. Meanwhile, the simultaneous emergence of the gri...

We investigate the problem of how to evaluate efficiently a collection of shortest path queries on massive graphs that are too big to fit in the main memory. To evaluate a shortes...
We present the new technique of dynamic path reduction (DPR), which allows one to prune redundant paths from the state space of a program under verification. DPR is a very general...
