Personalized PageRank, related to random walks with restarts and conductance in resistive networks, is a frequent search paradigm for graph-structured databases. While efficient ba...
Spatial join is an important yet costly operation in spatial databases. In order to speed up the execution of a spatial join, the input tables are often indexed based on their spa...
Three join algorithms are evaluated in an environment with distributed main-memory based mediators and data sources. A streamed ship-out join ships bulks of tuples to a mediator ne...
Next-generation high throughput sequencing instruments are capable of generating hundreds of millions of reads in a single run. Mapping those reads to a reference genome is an ext...
