Abstract. Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks, or MANETs, provide communication between free-roaming mobile hosts without a fixed infrastructure. These MANETs operate under conditions of limite...
Abstract. Extracting data from web pages using wrappers is a fundamental problem arising in a large variety of applications of vast practical interests. In this paper, we propose a...
Existing distributed hash tables provide efficient mechanisms for storing and retrieving a data item based on an exact key, but are unsuitable when the search key is similar, but ...
Abstract. This work proposes LEASE, a novel Mobile-P2P lease-based economic incentive model, in which data requestors need to pay the price (in virtual currency) of their requested...
In this paper, we describe a query system that provides visual relevance feedback in querying large databases. Our goal is to support the process of data mining by representing as...
SIMD or vector computers and collection-oriented languages, like C , are designed to perform the same computation on each data item or on just a subset of the data. Subsets of pro...
A novel method of visualising data based upon the schooling behaviour of fish is described. The technique allows the user to see complex correlations between data items through the...
An important issue in data mining is the recognition of complex dependencies between attributes. Past techniques for identifying attribute dependence include correlation coefficie...
We consider the problem of efficient information retrieval in asymmetric communication environments where multiple clients with limited resources retrieve information from a power...
In this paper, we study the inconsistency problem in data broadcast. While data items in a mobile computing system are being broadcast, update transactions may install new values ...
