Abstract. We present a new method for proving lower bounds in evolutionary computation based on fitness-level arguments and an additional condition on transition probabilities bet...
Skyline queries have attracted considerable attention over the last few years, mainly due to their ability to return interesting objects without the need for user-defined scoring f...
Abstract-- A network of nodes communicate via noisy channels. Each node has some real-valued initial measurement or message. The goal of each of the nodes is to acquire an estimate...
An emerging challenge in modern distributed querying is to efficiently process multiple continuous aggregation queries simultaneously. Processing each query independently may be i...
