Database transformations arise in many di erent settings including database integration, evolution of database systems, and implementing user views and data-entry tools. This paper...
The intent of peer data management systems (PDMS) is to share as much data as possible. However, in many applications leveraging sensitive data, users demand adequate mechanisms to...
When evaluating quantitative aspects of communication networks using simulation, one of the main difficulties to face is the often considerable computing power required. In some s...
We propose a framework for 3D geometry processing that provides direct access to surface curvature to facilitate advanced shape editing, filtering, and synthesis algorithms. The c...
