We study XML stream-specific schema-based optimization. We assume a widely-adopted automata-based execution model for XQuery evaluation. Criteria are established regarding what s...
Classical logic cannot be used to effectively reason about systems with uncertainty (lack of essential information) or inconsistency (contradictory information often occurring when...

In this paper, we show that over the binary erasure channel, Quasi-Cyclic LDPC codes can efficiently accommodate the hybrid iterative/ML decoding. We demonstrate that the quasicycl...
— The intentionally imposed or inherent unintentional residual redundancy found in source encoded bitstreams can be exploited for supporting joint SoftBit-Source Decoding and Cha...
In a world of wide-scale information sharing, the decentralized coordination has to consolidate a variety of heterogeneity. Shared data are described in different formats, i.e. da...
