Wavelet transform based image coding algorithms have the two inherent scalable features of SNR scalability and spatial (or resolution) scalability. However, fine scalability is sup...
—Spatial query execution is an essential functionality of a sensor network. Redundancy within a sensor network can be exploited to reduce the communication cost incurred in execu...
Modern scientific applications consume massive volumes of data produced by computer simulations. Such applications require new data management capabilities in order to scale to te...
This paper proposes a simple and efficient implementation method for a hierarchical coarse grain task parallel processing scheme on a SMP machine. OSCAR multigrain parallelizing c...
: Managing image data in a database system using metadata has been practiced since the last two decades. However, describing an image fully and adequately with metadata is practica...
