Social media are constructed from the collective contributions of potentially millions of individuals and present an increasingly common and large scale form of database. As these...

In dynamic stabbing, we operate on a dynamic set of intervals. A stabbing query asks for an interval containing a given point. This basic problem encodes problems such as method l...
Abstract. Our research group has analyzed many industrial, frameworkbased applications. In these applications, simple functionality often requires excessive runtime activity. It is...
