A Last-Resort Semantic Cache for Web Queries
We propose a method to evaluate queries using a last-resort semantic cache in a distributed Web search engine. The cache stores a group of frequent queries and for each of these qu...

On Entropy-Compressed Text Indexing in External Memory
A new trend in the field of pattern matching is to design indexing data structures which take space very close to that required by the indexed text (in entropy-compressed form) an...

Generalised Matching
Given a pattern p over an alphabet Σp and a text t over an alphabet Σt, we consider the problem of determining a mapping f from Σp to Σ+ t such that t = f(p1)f(p2) . . . f(pm)....

Consensus Optimizing Both Distance Sum and Radius
The consensus string problem is finding a representative string (consensus) of a given set S of strings. In this paper we deal with the consensus string problems optimizing both d...
