We consider several private database query problems. The starting point of this work is the element rank problem: the server holds a database of n integers, and the user an integer...
A preprocessing procedure that uses a local guided search defined in terms of a neighborhood structure to get a feasible solution (UB) and the Osorio and Glover[18, 20] exploiting ...
Mesh partitioning is an important problem that has extensive applications in many areas. Multilevel algorithms are a successful class of optimization techniques which addresses th...
We describe WebCLEF, the multilingual web track, that was introduced at CLEF 2005. We provide details of the tasks, the topics, and the results of WebCLEF participants. The mixed ...
We use a parallel multi-objective genetic algorithm to drive a search and reconstruction spectroscopic analysis of plasma gradients in inertial confinement fusion (ICF) implosion...
