Abstract. Query reformulation techniques based on semantic knowledge have been used in two ways in database management systems, namely for query optimization and for data integrati...
In this paper we introduce the idea of snapshot queries for energy efficient data acquisition in sensor networks. Network nodes generate models of their surrounding environment th...
This paper proposes a strategy to reduce the amount of hardware involved in the solution of search engine queries. It proposes using a secondary compact cache that keeps minimal i...
