Index compression techniques are known to substantially decrease the storage requirements of a text retrieval system. As a side-effect, they may increase its retrieval performanc...
Abstract In an effort to achieve lower bandwidth requirements, video compression algorithms have become increasingly complex. Consequently, the deployment of these algorithms on Fi...

Query co-processing on graphics processors (GPUs) has become an effective means to improve the performance of main memory databases. However, this co-processing requires the data ...
There are many advantages to be gained by storing the lexicon of a full text database in main memory. In this paper we describe how to use a compressed inverted file index to sear...
The way memory hierarchy has evolved in recent decades has opened new challenges in the development of indexing structures in general and spatial access methods in particular. In t...
