In the classical database world, information access has been based on a paradigm that involves structured, schema-aware, queries and tabular answers. In the current environment, h...
In uncertain and probabilistic databases, confidence values (or probabilities) are associated with each data item. Confidence values are assigned to query results based on combinin...
In this paper we propose a novel algorithm called Rank-Based Broadcast (RBB) for discovery of local resources in mobile P2P networks. With RBB, each moving object periodically bro...
—Target tracking is a main application of wireless sensor networks (WSNs), and has been studied widely [4], [10]. In this work, we study indoor passive tracking problem using WSN...
We consider the problem of estimating CPU (distance computations) and I/O costs for processing range and k-nearest neighbors queries over metric spaces. Unlike the specific case ...
