An interface is described that uses color and spatial relations to provide an intuitive interface for sound manipulation. A simple geometric shape, called the Geometric Sound Mixe...
A key feature of relational database applications is managing plural relationships—one-to-many and many-to-many— between entities. However, since it is often infeasible to ado...
This paper presents a new method to compute constructive solid geometry (CSG) tree representations of an object whose faces consist of planar and non-planar surfaces. The algorith...
A merger is a probabilistic procedure which extracts the randomness out of any (arbitrarily correlated) set of random variables, as long as one of them is uniform. Our main result...
Rewriting queries using views is a powerful technique that has applications in data integration, data warehousing and query optimization. Query rewriting in relational databases i...
