The increasingly large amount of digital multimedia content has created a need for technologies to search and identify multimedia files. Multimedia fingerprinting has been widely ...
Generalized algebraic data types (GADTs) have received much attention recently in the functional programming community. They generalize the (type) parameterized algebraic datatype...
We investigate runtime strategies for data-intensive applications that involve generalized reductions on large, distributed datasets. Our set of strategies includes replicated fi...
Wide-area distribution raises significant performance problems for traditional query processing techniques as data access becomes less predictable due to link congestion, load imb...
Data synopsis is a lossy compressed representation of data stored into databases that helps the query optimizer to speed up the query process, e.g. time to retrieve the data from ...
