The time required to simulate a complete benchmark program using the cycle-accurate model of a microprocessor can be prohibitively high. One of the proposed methodologies, represe...
In order to lay a solid foundation for the emerging semantic web, effective and efficient management of large RDF(S) data is in high demand. In this paper we propose an approach t...
The quality of a local search engine, such as Google and Bing Maps, heavily relies on its geographic datasets. Typically, these datasets are obtained from multiple sources, e.g., ...
The emergence of the Semantic Web has led to the creation of large semantic knowledge bases, often in the form of RDF databases. Improving the performance of RDF databases necessit...
Recent years saw the rapid development of peer-topeer (P2P) networks in a great variety of applications. However, similarity-based k-nearest-neighbor retrieval (k-NN) is still a c...
