Bandit based methods for tree search have recently gained popularity when applied to huge trees, e.g. in the game of go [6]. Their efficient exploration of the tree enables to ret...
With more and more natural language text stored in databases, handling respective query predicates becomes very important. Optimizing queries with predicates includes (sub)string ...
This paper addresses the problem of fault resilience of overlay-based live media streaming from two aspects: (1) how to construct a stable multicast tree that minimizes the negati...
Motivated by an application in computational topology, we consider a novel variant of the problem of efficiently maintaining dynamic rooted trees. This variant allows an operation...
It is important to design an energy efficient data gathering tree structure for wireless sensor networks. As for the energy efficiency, network's overall energy consumption an...
