The Ambient Logic is a modal logic proposed to describe the structural and computational properties of distributed and mobile computations. The static part of the Ambient Logic is,...
We simulate different architectures of a distributed Information Retrieval system on a very large Web collection, in order to work out the optimal setting for a particular set of r...
This paper presents a region splitting strategy for physical database design of multidimensional le organizations. Physical database design is the process of determining the optim...
Existing index selection tools rely on heuristics to efficiently search within the large space of alternative solutions and to minimize the overhead of using the query optimizer ...
The efficiency of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems is largely dependent on the overlay constructions. Due to the random selection of logical neighbors, there often exists serious topolog...
