We analyze the performance of CDMA signature optimization with finite rate feedback. For a particular user, the receiver selects a signature vector from a signature codebook to avo...
XML and XQuery semantics are very sensitive to the order of the produced output. Although pattern-tree based algebraic approaches are becoming more and more popular for evaluating...
Exotic semirings such as the “(max, +) semiring” (R ∪ {−∞}, max, +), or the “tropical semiring” (N ∪ {+∞}, min, +), have been invented and reinvented many times s...
This paper approaches the incremental view maintenance problem from an algebraic perspective. We construct a ring of databases and use it as the foundation of the design of a quer...
Cognitive Tutors are proven effective learning environments, but are still not as effective as one-on-one human tutoring. We describe an environment (ALPS) designed to engage stude...
