We investigate the problem of how to evaluate efficiently a collection of shortest path queries on massive graphs that are too big to fit in the main memory. To evaluate a shortes...
Many sensor network applications, such as object tracking and disaster monitoring, require effective techniques for event detection. In this paper, we propose a novel event detect...
We describe an approach for pipelining nested data collections in scientific workflows. Our approach logically delimits arbitrarily nested collections of data tokens using special...
Joins are among the most frequently executed operations. Several fast join algorithms have been developed and extensively studied; these can be categorized as sort-merge, hash-bas...
