Proximity searching consists in retrieving from a database, objects that are close to a query. For this type of searching problem, the most general model is the metric space, where...
We consider the problem of estimating CPU (distance computations) and I/O costs for processing range and k-nearest neighbors queries over metric spaces. Unlike the specific case ...
Caching web pages is an important part of web infrastructure. The effects of caching services are even more pronounced for wireless infrastructures due to their limited bandwidth. ...
We study the notion of learning in an oblivious changing environment. Existing online learning algorithms which minimize regret are shown to converge to the average of all locally...
We investigate network management information for light-path assessment to dynamically set up end-to-end lightpaths across administrative domains. Our focus is on invetigating what...
