The proliferation of the World Wide Web has brought information retrieval (IR) techniques to the forefront of search technology. To the average computer user, “searching” now ...
Well-designed indices can dramatically improve query performance. Including query workload information can produce indices that yield better overall throughput while balancing the...
The query performance for tracing tags depends upon the distribution of tag trajectories in the data space. We examine a more efficient representation of tag trajectories by means ...
— Constraints play an important role in the efficient query evaluation in deductive databases. In this paper, constraint-based query evaluation in deductive databases is investi...
We consider the problem of estimating CPU (distance computations) and I/O costs for processing range and k-nearest neighbors queries over metric spaces. Unlike the specific case ...
