Abstract: Optimization of nested queries, in particular finding equivalent “flattened” queries for queries that employ the SQL sub-query construct, has been researched extensiv...
Efficient data indexing is significant to embedded devices, because both CPU cycles and energy are very precious resources. Soft lists, a new index structure for embedded devices w...
Indexes are the key technology underpinning efficient text search. A range of algorithms have been developed for fast query evaluation and for index creation, but update algorithm...
Index structures are designed to optimize search performance, while at the same time supporting efficient data updates. Although not explicit, existing index structures are typica...
As it becomes increasingly viable to capture, store, and share large amounts of image and video data, automatic image analysis is crucial to managing visual information. Many prob...
