Incompleteness due to missing attribute values (aka "null values") is very common in autonomous web databases, on which user accesses are usually supported through media...
Abstract: Peer data management systems (PDMS) are a highly dynamic, decentralized infrastructure for large-scale data integration. They consist of a dynamic set of autonomous peers...
Being able to efficiently answer arbitrary OLAP queries that aggregate along any combination of dimensions over numerical and categorical attributes has been a continued, major co...
—Shortest distance query between two nodes is a fundamental operation in large-scale networks. Most existing methods in the literature take a landmark embedding approach, which s...
