Given a query iris image, the goal of indexing is to identify and retrieve a small subset of candidate irides from the database in order to determine a possible match. This can si...
We identify crucial design issues in building a distributed inverted index for a large collection of web pages. We introduce a novel pipelining technique for structuring the core ...
Sensor networks have opened new horizons and opportunities for a variety of environmental monitoring, surveillance and healthcare applications. One of the major tasks of sensor ne...
In this paper, we propose a new technique for multidimensional query processing which can be widely applied in database systems. Our new technique, called tree striping, generalize...
