Abstract: Peer data management systems (PDMS) are a highly dynamic, decentralized infrastructure for large-scale data integration. They consist of a dynamic set of autonomous peers...
We present a novel matching and similarity evaluation method for planar geometric shapes represented by sets of polygonal curves. Given two shapes, the matching algorithm randomly...
Provability-based semantic interoperability (PBSI) is a kind of interoperability that transcends mere syntactic translation to allow for robust, meaningful information exchange acr...

In this paper we propose a fundamental approach to perform the class of Nearest Neighbor (NN) queries, the core class of queries used in many of the location-based services, withou...
In the k-medoid problem, given a dataset P, we are asked to choose k points in P as the medoids. The optimal medoid set minimizes the average Euclidean distance between the points ...
