Lossless condensers are unbalanced expander graphs, with expansion close to optimal. Equivalently, they may be viewed as functions that use a short random seed to map a source on ...
Abstract: We investigate the parametrization issue for discrete-time stable allpass multivariable systems by means of a Schur algorithm involving a Nudelman interpolation condition...
Distributed source coding is traditionally viewed in the block coding context -- all the source symbols are known in advance at the encoders. This paper instead considers a stream...
We study the problem of answering queries posed on virtual views of XML documents, a problem commonly encountered when enforcing XML access control and integrating data. We approa...
In this paper we consider general path constraints for semistructured databases. Our general constraints do not suffer from the limitations of the path constraints previously stud...
