Grid applications often need to distribute large amounts of data efficiently from one cluster to multiple others (multicast). Existing methods usually arrange nodes in optimized t...
The paper addresses the region search problem in three-dimensional (3D) space. The data used is a dynamically growing point cloud as it is typically gathered with a 3D-sensing devi...
As a case study that illustrates our view on coordination and component-based software engineering, we present the design and implementation of a parallel constraint solver. The pa...
The growing importance of spatial data has made it imperative that spatial operations be executed efficiently. The most expensive operation is the join for spatial databases. This...
The M-tree is a paged, dynamically balanced metric access method that responds gracefully to the insertion of new objects. To date, no algorithm has been published for the corresp...
