Until recently, most data integration techniques involved central components, e.g., global schemas, to enable transparent access to heterogeneous databases. Today, however, with t...
Given an object q, modeled by a multidimensional point, a reverse nearest neighbors (RNN) query returns the set of objects in the database that have q as their nearest neighbor. I...
A new multimedia disk scheduling algorithm, termed Cascaded-SFC, is presented. The Cascaded-SFC multimedia disk scheduler is applicable in environments where multimedia data reque...

Abstract-- Multi-projector displays today are automatically registered, both geometrically and photometrically, using cameras. Existing registration techniques assume pre-calibrate...
With the exponential growth in size of geometric data, it is becoming increasingly important to make effective use of multilevel caches, limited disk storage, and bandwidth. As a r...
