In this paper we discuss two data models for spatial database systems: the linear data model and the topological data model. Both can be used to model a wide range of applications....
Abstract. Laboratory investigations have shown that a formal theory of fault-tolerance will be essential to harness nanoscale self-assembly as a medium of computation. Several rese...
Designing a wide-area distributed hash table (DHT) that provides high-throughput and low-latency network storage is a challenge. Existing systems have explored a range of solution...
