Abstract. Algorithms for processing Structural Joins embody essential building blocks for XML query evaluation. Their design is a difficult task, because they have to satisfy many ...
In an uncertain database, each data item is modeled as a range associated with a probability density function. Previous works for this kind of data have focussed on simple queries...
— We consider how to support a large number of users over a wide-area network whose interests are characterized by range top-k continuous queries. Given an object update, we need...
Parallel algorithm designers need computational models that take first order system costs into account, but are also simple enough to use in practice. This paper introduces the L...
Due to the strong increase of processing units available to the end user, expressing parallelism of an algorithm is a major challenge for many researchers. Parallel applications ar...
