Sharing huge, massively distributed databases in P2P systems is inherently difficult. As the amount of stored data increases, data localization techniques become no longer suffi...

We prove new lower bounds for locally decodable codes and private information retrieval. We show that a 2-query LDC encoding nbit strings over an ℓ-bit alphabet, where the decode...
The growing needs in computational power to answer to the increasing number of on-line services and the complexity of applications makes it mandatory to build corresponding hardwar...
We propose a simple approach to combining first-order logic and probabilistic graphical models in a single representation. A Markov logic network (MLN) is a first-order knowledge b...
Declarative queries are proving to be an attractive paradigm for interacting with networks of wireless sensors. The metaphor that “the sensornet is a database” is problematic,...
