Current methods for selectivity estimation fall into two broad categories, synopsis-based and sampling-based. Synopsis-based methods, such as histograms, incur minimal overhead at ...
Background: Physical maps are the substrate of genome sequencing and map-based cloning and their construction relies on the accurate assembly of BAC clones into large contigs that...

A novel video encoding and splicing method is proposed which minimizes the tune-in time of “channel zapping”, i.e. changing from one audiovisual service to another, in IPDC ov...
— Batteries are non-ideal energy sources – minimizing the energy consumption of a battery-powered system is not equivalent to maximizing its battery life. We propose an alterna...
