Whereas traditional databases manage only deterministic information, many applications that use databases involve uncertain data. This paper presents a Probabilistic Tree Data Bas...
Remote sensing applications often concern very large volumes of spatio-temporal data, the emerging Grid computing technologies bring an effective solution to this problem. The Open...
The problem of answering queries using views is to find efficient methods of answering a query using a set of previously materialized views over the database, rather than accessing...
Modern science is collecting massive amounts of data from sensors, instruments, and through computer simulation. It is widely believed that analysis of this data will hold the key ...
