The performance of XML database queries can be greatly enhanced by rewriting them using materialized views. We study the problem of rewriting a query using materialized views, whe...
Java applets run on a Virtual Machine that checks code's integrity and correctness before execution using a module called Bytecode Verifier. Java Card technology allows Java ...
Analyzing structure in complex time dependent flow fields is a challenging problem. This paper describes the use of spot noise for the visualization of this type of fields. Spo...
Abstract-- We study the convergence rate of average consensus algorithms in networks with stochastic communication failures. We show how the system dynamics can be modeled by a dis...
We address two problems of technical authors in structured environments: (1) Structure definitions of the SGML school are limiting: they require one primary hierarchy and do not c...
