Answering aggregate queries like sum, count, min, max over regions containing moving objects is often needed for virtual world applications, real-time monitoring systems, etc. Sin...
We present three results related to dynamic convex hulls: • A fully dynamic data structure for maintaining a set of n points in the plane so that we can find the edges of the c...
Distributed storage systems often use data replication to mask failures and guarantee high data availability. Node failures can be transient or permanent. While the system must ge...

Imaging in scattering media such as fog and water is important but challenging. Images suffer from poor visibility due to backscattering and signal attenuation. Most prior methods...
We report on the performance evaluation of greedy parsing with a single step lookahead, denoted as flexible parsing. We also introduce a new fingerprint based data structure which...
