A distributed search algorithm for solving distributed constraint satisfaction problems (DisCSPs) is presented. The proposed algorithm is composed of multiple search processes (SP...
In this paper we present a novel technique for nearest neighbor searching dubbed neighborhood approximation. The central idea is to divide the database into compact regions repres...
Sleator and Tarjan [39] conjectured that splay trees are dynamically optimal binary search trees (BST). In this context, we study the skip list data structure introduced by Pugh [...
Abstract. After text retrieval, the next waves in web searching and multimedia retrieval are the search for and delivery of images, music, video, and 3D scenes. Not only the percep...
