Dealing with verbose (or long) queries poses a new challenge for information retrieval. Selecting a subset of the original query (a "sub-query") has been shown to be an ...
Search-based graph queries, such as finding short paths and isomorphic subgraphs, are dominated by memory latency. If input graphs can be partitioned appropriately, large cluster...

XML information retrieval (XML-IR) systems aim to provide users with highly exhaustive and highly specific results. To interact with XML-IR systems, users must express both their ...
The massive data streams observed in network monitoring, data processing and scientific studies are typically too large to store. For many applications over such data, we must ob...
To solve real-world discrete optimization problems approximately metaheuristics such as simulated annealing and other local search methods are commonly used. For large instances o...
