Abstract. Caching data reduces user-perceived latency and often enhances availability in case of server crashes or network failures. DB caching aims at local processing of declarat...
Abstract: Peer data management systems (PDMS) are a highly dynamic, decentralized infrastructure for large-scale data integration. They consist of a dynamic set of autonomous peers...
Recently there is much interest in moving objects databases, and data models and query languages have been proposed offering data types such as moving point and moving region toge...
Background: Transcription factors (TFs) are key regulatory proteins that enhance or repress the transcriptional rate of their target genes by binding to specific promoter regions ...
We introduce tractable classes of VCSP instances based on convex cost functions. Firstly, we show that the class of VCSP instances satisfying the hierarchically nested convexity pr...
