Abstract. In this paper, we consider whether traditional index structures are effective in processing unstable nearest neighbors workloads. It is known that under broad conditions...
Let be a finite, ordered alphabet, and consider a string x = x1x2 . . . xn n . A secondary index for x answers alphabet range queries of the form: Given a range [al, ar] , retu...
A maximal independent set on a graph is an inclusion-maximal set of mutually non-adjacent nodes. This basic symmetry breaking structure is vital for many distributed algorithms, w...
We present some theoretical results related to the problem
of actively searching for a target in a 3D environment,
under the constraint of a maximum search time. We define
the o...
The optimal transformation of one tree into another by means of elementary edit operations is an important algorithmic problem that has several interesting applications to computat...
