In this paper, we consider a variation of the Euclidean Steiner Tree Problem in which the space underlying the set of nodes has a specified non-uniform cost structure. This proble...
This paper introduces a simple Sum-over-Paths (SoP) formulation of string edit distances accounting for all possible alignments between two sequences, and extends related previous...
Using off-the-shelf commodity workstations and PCs to build a cluster for parallel computing has become a common practice. A choice of a cost-effective cluster computing platform ...
Nearest neighbor (NN) search in high dimensional space is an important problem in many applications. Ideally, a practical solution (i) should be implementable in a relational data...
The join operation, which combines tuples from multiple relations, is the most fundamental and, typically, the most expensive operation in database queries. The standard approach t...
