We propose a radical approach to relational query processing that aims at automatically and consistently achieving a good performance on any memory hierarchy. We believe this auto...
Nowadays, biologists use a number of large biological databanks to find relevant information for their research. Users of these databanks face a number of problems. One problem i...
Algebraic Point Set Surfaces (APSS) define a smooth surface from a set of points using local moving least-squares (MLS) fitting of algebraic spheres. In this paper we first revisi...
Pervasive computing is an emerging computing paradigm, which is expected to be part of our everyday life in the foreseeable future. The coordination among heterogeneous devices, s...
Phrase-based decoding is conceptually simple and straightforward to implement, at the cost of drastically oversimplified reordering models. Syntactically aware models make it pos...
