Databases are increasingly being used to store multi-media objects such as maps, images, audio and video. Storage and retrieval of these objects is accomplished using multi-dimens...

Inverted indexes using sequences of characters (n-grams) as terms provide an error-resilient and language-independent way to query for arbitrary substrings and perform approximate...
Abstract—We propose a novel search mechanism for unstructured p2p networks, and show that it is both scalable, i.e., it leads to a bounded query traffic load per peer as the pee...
We consider the in-network computation of approximate “big picture” summaries in bandwidth-constrained sensor networks. First we review early work on computing the Haar wavele...
We present a methodology for a sensor network to answer queries with limited and stochastic information using probabilistic techniques. This capability is useful in that it allows...
