We study several cost coloring problems, where we are given a graph and a cost function on the independent sets and are to find a coloring that minimizes the function costs of the...
This paper studies five real-world data intensive workflow applications in the fields of natural language processing, astronomy image analysis, and web data analysis. Data intensiv...
Spatial databases are entering an era of mass deployment in various real-life applications, especially mobile and location-based services. The real-time processing of spatial quer...
