Partitioning data parallel computations across a network of heterogeneous workstations is a dificult problem for the user: We have developed a runtime partitioning methodfor choos...
— One of the central problems for data quality is inconsistency detection. Given a database D and a set Σ of dependencies as data quality rules, we want to identify tuples in D ...
Sander, Young and Yung recently exhibited a protocol for computing on encrypted inputs, for functions computable in NC1 . In their variant of secure function evaluation, Bob (the &...
Perceptual image coding algorithms typically impose perceptual modeling in a preprocessing stage. A perceptual normalization model is often used to transform the original image si...
A way to optimize performance of relational row store databases is to reduce the row widths by vertically partitioning tables into table fractions in order to minimize the number ...
