—We consider the problem of efficiently managing massive data in a large-scale distributed environment. We consider data strings of size in the order of Terabytes, shared and ac...
Searching for similar objects in metric-space databases can be efficiently solved by using index data structures. A number of alternative sequential indexes have been proposed in...
We present a stream tapping protocol that involves clients in the video distribution process. As in conventional stream tapping, our protocol lets new clients tap the most recent ...
— This paper presents a pitch-based approach for creating musical fingerprints for similarity assessment. An effective measure for musical similarity impacts music indexing and c...
— Self-management has often been proposed as a means to reduce the growing complexity of administration in distributed systems. We argue that this can be achieved through aggress...
