The case for a versatile storage system
Storage systems in emerging large-scale (a.k.a. peta-scale) computing systems often introduce a performance or scalability bottleneck. To deal with these limitations we propose a ...

Spatial Indexing into Compressed Raster Images: How to Answer Range Queries Without Decompression
The maintenance of large raster images under spatial operations is still a major performance bottleneck. For reasons of storage space, images in a collection, such as satellite pi...

Document-Oriented Pruning of the Inverted Index in Information Retrieval Systems
Searching very large collections can be costly in both computation and storage. To reduce this cost, recent research has focused on reducing the size (pruning) of the inverted ind...
