In this paper, we are concerned with the problem of designing optimal linear hashing files for orthogonal range retrieval. Through the study of performance expressions, we show th...

This paper presents Clusterfile, a parallel file system that provides parallel file access on a cluster of computers. Existing parallel file systems offer little control over matc...
—This paper derives the optimal search time and the optimal search cost that can be achieved in unstructured peer-topeer networks when the demand pattern exhibits clustering (i.e...
With the explosion in the amount of semi-structured data users access and store, there is a need for complex search tools to retrieve often very heterogeneous data in a simple and ...
Search engines use inverted files as index data structures to speed up the solution of user queries. The index is distributed on a set of processors forming a cluster of computer...
