Abstract--A novel cluster-head selection and update algorithm "Typebased Cluster-forming Algorithm (TCA)" is proposed, which outperforms both the lowest node ID (LID) and...
In this paper, we consider a generic model of computational grids, seen as several clusters of homogeneous processors. In such systems, a key issue when designing efficient job al...
XML data warehouses form an interesting basis for decision-support applications that exploit complex data. However, native XML database management systems currently bear limited p...
Indexing XML is crucial for efficient XML query processing. We propose a compact tree (Ctree) for XML indexing, which provides not only concise path summaries at group level but a...
Cluster-based storage systems are popular for data-intensive applications and it is desirable yet challenging to provide incremental expansion and high availability while achievin...
