Processing Unions of Conjunctive Queries with Negation under Limited Access Patterns
We study the problem of answering queries over sources with limited access patterns. The problem is to decide whether a given query Q is feasible, i.e., equivalent to an executable...

Minimizing latency and memory in DSMS: a unified approach to quasi-optimal scheduling
Data Stream Management Systems (DSMSs) must support optimized execution scheduling of multiple continuous queries on massive, and frequently bursty, data streams. Previous approac...

Globally Optimal Uneven Error-Protected Packetization of Scalable Code Streams
In this paper, we present a family of new algorithms for rate-fidelity optimal packetization of scalable source bit streams with uneven error protection. In the most general settin...

How Many Query Superpositions Are Needed to Learn?
Abstract. This paper introduces a framework for quantum exact learning via queries, the so-called quantum protocol. It is shown that usual protocols in the classical learning setti...
