With the advent of XML as the de facto language for data publishing and exchange, scalable distribution of XML data to large, dynamic populations of consumers remains an important...
In this paper, we propose a model for representing and predicting distances in large-scale networks by matrix factorization. The model is useful for network distance sensitive app...
