This study investigated a relatively unexamined query type, queries composed of URLs. The extent, variation and user click-through behavior was examined to determine the intent be...
This paper proposes new methods to answer approximate nearest neighbor queries on a set of n points in d-dimensional Euclidean space. For any xed constant d, a data structure with...
A novel framework for providing probabilistically-bounded approximate answers to non-holistic aggregate range queries in OLAP is presented in this paper. Such a framework allows u...
The rapid adoption of XML as the standard for data representation and exchange foreshadows a massive increase in the amounts of XML data collected, maintained, and queried over th...

We show that it is not possible to approximate the minimum Steiner tree problem within 1 + 1 162 unless RP = NP. The currently best known lower bound is 1 + 1 400. The reduction i...
