In this paper, we propose a new strategy for optimizing the placement of bin boundaries to minimize the cost of query evaluation using bitmap indices with binning. For attributes ...
We introduce two new complexity measures for Boolean functions, which we name sumPI and maxPI. The quantity sumPI has been emerging through a line of research on quantum query com...
The central idea behind interface-based design is to describe components by a component interface. In contrast to a component description that describes what a component does, a c...
abstract NP-hard optimization problem, in a general sense. From the observation that, intuitively, there are many connections among categorical concepts and structural complexity n...
