A pervasive requirement of distributed systems is to deal with churn — change in the set of participating nodes due to joins, graceful leaves, and failures. A high churn rate ca...
We present a new family of hybrid index maintenance strategies to be used in on-line index construction for monotonically growing text collections. These new strategies improve up...
A novel approach for similarity search on the protein structure databases is proposed. PADS (Protein Alignment by Directional shape Signatures) incorporates the three dimensional ...

Many areas of modern biology are concerned with the management, storage, visualization, comparison, and analysis of networks. For instance, networks are used to model signal trans...
This paper considers computation of visibility for twodimensional shapes whose boundaries are C1 continuous curves. We assume we are given a one-parameter family of candidate view...
