We consider algorithms for combining advice from a set of experts. In each trial, the algorithm receives the predictions of the experts and produces its own prediction. A loss func...
Abstract. Caching can highly improve performance of query processing in distributed databases. In this paper we show how this technique can be used in grid architecture where data ...

Schema matching is a critical problem for integrating heterogeneous information sources. Traditionally, the problem of matching multiple schemas has essentially relied on finding ...
For object-oriented databases we propose a new technique for optimizing queries containing method invocations. This technique is based on the definition of inverse methods and que...
A wireless sensor network consists of a large number of small, resource-constrained devices and usually operates in hostile environments that are prone to link and node failures. ...
