In this paper, we propose an online aggregation system called COSMOS (Continuous Sampling for Multiple queries in an Online aggregation System), to process multiple aggregate quer...
Online social network has developed significantly in recent years as a medium of communicating, sharing and disseminating information and spreading influence. Most of current resea...
We present results related to satisfying shortest path queries on a planar graph stored in external memory. Let N denote the number of vertices in the graph and let sort(N) denote...
Motivated by optimization problems in sensor coverage, we formulate and study the Minimum-Area Spanning Tree (mast) problem: Given a set P of n points in the plane, find a spannin...
Every compact orientable boundaryless surface M can be cut along simple loops with a common point v0, pairwise disjoint except at v0, so that the resulting surface is a topologica...
