This paper presents a novel method for acquiring a set of query patterns to retrieve documents containing important information about an entity. Given an existing Wikipedia catego...
In recent years wavelets were shown to be effective data synopses. We are concerned with the problem of finding efficiently wavelet synopses for massive data sets, in situations...
For the foreseeable future, most data will continue to be stored in relational databases. To work with these data in ontology-based applications, tools and techniques that bridge t...

We consider submodular optimization problems, and provide a general way of translating oracle inapproximability results arising from the symmetry gap technique to computational co...
Abstract. Cloud computing promises a cost effective enabling technology to outsource storage and massively parallel computations. However, existing approaches for provably secure ...
