Location-based services have attracted the attention of important research in the field of mobile computing. Specifically, different mechanisms have been proposed to process loc...
Inspired by recent results showing that Wyner-Ziv coding using a combination of source and channel coding may be more efficient than pure channel coding, we have applied coset cod...

Optimistic distributed systems often rely on version vectors or their variants in order to track updates on replicated objects. Some of these mechanisms rely on some form of global...
Motion Compensated Temporal Filtering (MCTF) has proved to be an efficient coding tool in the design of open-loop scalable video codecs. In this paper we propose a MCTF video codi...
Materialized views (MV) can significantly improve the query performance of relational databases. In this paper, we consider MVs to optimize complex scenarios where many heterogen...
