New optimization techniques, e. g., in data stream management systems (DSMSs), make the treatment of disjunctive predicates a necessity. In this paper, we introduce and compare me...
Filtering queries are widely used in data stream applications. As more and more filtering queries are registered in high-speed data stream management system, the processing efficie...
The bilateral filter is a nonlinear filter that does spatial averaging without smoothing edges; it has shown to be an effective image denoising technique. An important issue with t...
Abstract. In predicate abstraction, exact image computation is problematic, requiring in the worst case an exponential number of calls to a decision procedure. For this reason, sof...
Abstract. Subtyping tends to undermine the effects of parametric polymorphism as far as the static detection of type errors is concerned. Starting with this observation we present...
