Compression in column-oriented databases has been proven to offer both performance enhancements and reductions in storage consumption. This is especially true for read access as c...
Given a set of multi-dimensional points, the skyline contains the best points according to any preference function that is monotone on all axes. In practice, applications that req...
In the emerging area of sensor-based systems, a significant challenge is to develop scalable, fault-tolerant methods to extract useful information from the data the sensors collec...
