Current models for cardinal directions, such as north and northeast, are either point-based or region-based, but no models exist that apply equally, independent of the geometric d...
We consider the problem of recovering items matching a partially specified pattern in multidimensional trees (quad trees and k-d trees). We assume the traditional model where the...

High energy physics scientists analyze large amounts of data looking for interesting events when particles collide. These analyses are easily expressed using complex queries that ...
In this paper, we characterize the user behavior in a peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing network. Our characterization is based on the results of an extensive passive measurement stu...

Abstract. To select an optimal query evaluation strategy for a path query in an object-oriented database system one has to exploit the available index structures on the path. In a ...
