All methods of association rule mining require the frequent sets of items, that occur together sufficiently often to be the basis of potentially interesting rules, to be first com...
— This paper describes a novel, ultra-fast heuristic algorithm to address an NP-hard optimization problem. One of its significances is that, for the first time, the paper shows...
Temporal databases provide built-in supports for efficient recording and querying of time-evolving data. In this paper, data clustering issues in temporal database environment are...
In existing relational database systems, processing of group-by and computation of aggregate functions are always postponed until all joins are performed. In this paper, we presen...
State-of-the-art technologies in very large scale integration (VLSI) allow for the realization of gates with varying energy consumptions and hence delays (i.e., processing speeds) ...
