Some improved bounds on the number of directions not determined by a point set in the affine space AG(k, q) are presented. More precisely, if there are more than pe (q -1) directio...
We present a simple technique for single-rate compression of point clouds sampled from a surface, based on a spanning tree of the points. Unlike previous methods, we predict futur...
In data integration, a Merge operator takes as input a pair of schemas in some conceptual modelling language, together with a set of correspondences between their constructs, and p...
We study the problem of privacy-preserving access to a database. Particularly, we consider the problem of privacy-preserving keyword search (KS), where records in the database are ...

Metaheuristic approaches to examination timetabling problems are usually split up into two phases: initialisation phase in which a heuristic is employed to construct an initial sol...
