Web crawlers generate significant loads on Web servers, and are difficult to operate. Instead of repeatedly running crawlers at many "client" sites, we propose a central...
Querying any information system requires the knowledge of some formal language, making it inaccessible to computer-na?ve potential users. We propose a new intuitive querying mecha...
We describe a causal learning method, which employs measuring the strength of statistical dependences in terms of the Hilbert-Schmidt norm of kernel-based cross-covariance operato...
The emergence of database languages with side effects, notably for XML, raises significant challenges for database compilers and optimizers. In this paper, we extend an algebra fo...
Many advancements in the area of Secure Multi-Party Computation (SMC) protocols use improvements in communication complexity as a justification. We conducted an experimental stud...
