Modeling objects by probability density functions (pdf) is a new powerful method to represent complex objects in databases. By representing an object as a pdf, e.g. a Gaussian, it...
In this paper, we present the ArchIS system that achieves full-functionality transaction-time databases without requiring temporal extensions in XML or database standards. ArchIS&...
The management of big databases of threedimensional models (used in CAD applications, visualization, games, etc.) is a very important domain. The ability to characterize and easil...
