Although the ant metaphor has been successfully applied to routing of data packets both in wireless and fixed networks, little is yet known about its applicability to the task of...
SQL extensions that allow queries to explicitly specify data quality requirements in terms of currency and consistency were proposed in an earlier paper. This paper develops a dat...
Spatial objects other than points and boxes can be stored in spatial indexes, but the techniques usually require the use of approximations that can be arbitrarily bad. This leads ...
We describe an asymptotically optimal data-structure for dynamic point location for horizontal segments. For n line-segments, queries take O(log n) time, updates take O(log n) amo...
We propose a neural network based method for organizing images for content-based image retrieval. We use spectral histogram features, the histograms of filtered images to capture...
