Advances in computing and networking technology, and an explosion in information sources has resulted in a growing number of distributed systems getting constructed out of resourc...
The paper introduces a query translation model that re ects the structure of the cross-language information retrieval task. The model is based on a structured bilingual dictionary...
In this paper, we propose a new technique for multidimensional query processing which can be widely applied in database systems. Our new technique, called tree striping, generalize...
Efficient query processing is one of the basic needs for data mining algorithms. Clustering algorithms, association rule mining algorithms and OLAP tools all rely on efficient quer...
A consistency protocol can be termed symmetric if all processors are treated identically when they access common resources. By contrast, asymmetric protocols usually assign a home...
