Let (L, ∗) be a semilattice, and let c : L → [0, ∞) be monotone and increasing on L. We state the Minimum Join problem as: given size n sub-collection X of L and integer k w...
We consider the problem of continuously maintaining order sketches over data streams with a relative rank error guarantee . Novel space-efficient and one-scan randomised technique...
Let P(n) denote the largest prime divisor of n, and let (x, y) be the number of integers n x with P(n) y. In this paper we present improvements to Bernstein's algorithm, whi...
Using a directed acyclic graph (dag) model of algorithms, we solve a problem related to precedenceconstrained multiprocessor schedules for array computations: Given a sequence of ...
We enunciate the need for watermarking database relations to deter their piracy, identify the unique characteristics of relational data which pose new challenges for watermarking,...
