Top-k queries based on ranking elements of multidimensional datasets are a fundamental building block for many kinds of information discovery. The best known general-purpose algor...
In this paper we describe a new efficient (in fact optimal) data structure for the top-K color problem. Each element of an array A is assigned a color c with priority p(c). For a ...
To integrate many data sources we use a peer mediator framework where views defined in the peers are logically composed in terms of each other. A common approach to execute queri...
Detecting bursts in data streams is an important and challenging task. Due to the complexity of this task, usually burst detection cannot be formulated using standard query operat...
