We investigate the problem of evaluating the performance of text processing algorithms on inputs that contain errors as a result of optical character recognition. A new hierarchic...
We provide an evaluation of query execution plans (QEP) in the case of queries with one or two spatial joins. The QEPs assume R -tree indexed relations and use a common set of spat...
