Abstract. Partial-match queries return data items that contain a subset of the query keywords and order the results based on the statistical properties of the matched keywords. The...
Abstract. We are witnessing a dramatic increase in the use of datacentric distributed systems such as global grid infrastructures, sensor networks, network monitoring, and various ...
In this paper, we study the effects of compression on bitmap indexes. The main operations on the bitmaps during query processing are bitwise logical operations such as AND, OR, N...
We present a new approach for 3D model indexing and retrieval using 2D/3D shape descriptors based on silhouettes or depth-buffer images. To take into account the dispersion of inf...
— Accurate analysis of VLSI interconnects is essential to the performance-driven synthesis and layout of integrated circuits. Existing techniques are based on either simulation, ...
