Data domain description techniques aim at deriving concise descriptions of objects belonging to a category of interest. For instance, the support vector domain description (SVDD) l...
— In this paper we consider the problem of query and search in a network, e.g., searching for a specific node or a piece of data. We limit our attention to the class of TTL (tim...
We explore join optimizations in the presence of both timebased constraints (sliding windows) and value-based constraints (punctuations). We present the first join solution named...
—In a sensor network, data routing is tightly coupled to the needs of a sensing task, and hence the application semantics. This paper introduces the novel idea of information-dir...
The identification and processing of similarities in the data play a key role in multiple application scenarios. Several types of similarity-aware operations have been studied in ...
