Due to an increasing volume of XML data, it is considered prudent to store XML data on an industry-strength database system instead of relying on a domain specific application or...
It is well established that bitmap indices are efficient for read-only attributes with low attribute cardinalities. For an attribute with a high cardinality, the size of the bitma...
Recent interest in region based image coding has given rise to graph coloring based partition encoding methods. These methods are based on the four color theorem for planar graphs...
To solve this problem, we devised the HS-bitmap index, which is hierarchically comprised of compressed data of summary bits. A summary bit in an upper matrix is obtained by logical...
Let be a finite, ordered alphabet, and consider a string x = x1x2 . . . xn n . A secondary index for x answers alphabet range queries of the form: Given a range [al, ar] , retu...
