Questions about order versus disorder in systems and models have been fascinating scientists over the years. In Computer Science, order is intimately related to sorting, commonly ...
A commonly used type of search tree is the alphabetic binary tree, which uses (without loss of generality) "less than" versus "greater than or equal to" tests ...
A supergraph containment search is to retrieve the data graphs contained by a query graph. In this paper, we study the problem of efficiently retrieving all data graphs approximate...

A number of biological applications require comparison of large genome strings. Current techniques suffer from both disk I/O and computational cost because of extensive memory req...
Nearest neighbor (NN) queries have been extended from Euclidean spaces to road networks. Existing approaches are either based on Dijkstra-like network expansion or NN/distance prec...
