In this paper we deal with problems occurring in evolving interrelated Web databanks. Examples of such databanks are networks of interlinked scientific repositories on the Web, man...
This paper investigates the computational complexity of approximating several NPoptimization problems using the number of queries to an NP oracle as a complexity measure. The resu...
Many applications in analytical domains often have the need to "connect the dots" i.e., query about the structure of data. In bioinformatics for example, it is typical t...
We show the first o(n2 ) algorithm for coloring vertices of trianglefree planar graphs using three colors. The time complexity of the algorithm is O(n log n). Our approach can be ...
We consider the problem of encrypting structured data (e.g., a web graph or a social network) in such a way that it can be efficiently and privately queried. For this purpose, we ...
