This paper considers the theory of database queries on the complex value data model with external functions. Motivated by concerns regarding query evaluation, we first identify re...
We give a simple order-theoretic construction of a Cartesian closed category of sequential functions. It is based on bistable biorders, which are sets with a partial order — the ...
Because of the increasingly diverse and dynamic environments in which they must operate, modern middleware platforms need to explicitly support modifiability. Modifiability should...
Automata for unranked trees form a foundation for XML schemas, querying and pattern languages. We study the problem of efficiently minimizing such automata. First, we study unrank...
Abstract--In this paper, we develop an adaptive waveform design method for target tracking under a framework of sequential Bayesian inference. We employ polarization diversity to i...
