In this paper, we describe a new indexing technique, the time indez, for improving the performance of certain classes of temporal queries. The time index can be used to retrieve v...
The focus of research in acceleration structures for ray tracing recently shifted from render time to time to image, the sum of build time and render time, and also the memory foo...
Structured peer-to-peer overlay networks or Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs) are distributed systems optimized for storage and retrieval of read-only data. In this paper we elaborate...
Local computation in join trees or acyclic hypertrees has been shown to be linked to a particular algebraic structure, called valuation algebra. There are many models of this alge...
