Existing estimation approaches for multi-dimensional databases often rely on the assumption that data distribution in a small region is uniform, which seldom holds in practice. Mo...
Stream grids are wide-area grid computing environments that are fed by a set of stream data sources. Such grids are becoming more wide-spread due to the large scale deployment of ...
