The range tree is a fundamental data structure for multidimensional point sets, and as such, is central in a wide range of geometric anddatabaseapplications. Inthis paper, we desc...

We give an O(n lg n)-time algorithm for counting the number of inversions in a permutation on n elements. This improves a long-standing previous bound of O(n lg n/ lg lg n) that ...
Efficient one-pass computation of F0, the number of distinct elements in a data stream, is a fundamental problem arising in various contexts in databases and networking. We consid...
Abstract-- This work presents a novel index structure, MHRtree, for efficiently answering approximate string match queries in large spatial databases. The MHR-tree is based on the ...

Wireless sensor networks with multiple users collecting data directly from the sensors have many potential applications. An important problem is to allocate for each user a query r...
