Queries to data warehouses often involve hundreds of complex aggregations over large volumes of data, and so it is infeasible to compute these queries by scanning the data sources ...
An abundance of biological data sources contain data on classes of scientific entities, such as genes and sequences. Logical relationships between scientific objects are implemen...
We present a multi-dimensional indexing approach for fast sequence similarity search in DNA and protein databases. In particular, we propose effective transformations of subsequen...
We propose two methods for finding similarities in protein structure databases. Our techniques extract feature vectors on triplets of SSEs (Secondary Structure Elements) of prote...
Peer-to-peer computing paradigm is emerging as a scalable and robust model for sharing media objects. In this paper, we propose an architecture and describe the associated algorit...
