Visualization of multidimensional data by means of Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) is a popular technique of exploratory data analysis widely usable, e.g. in analysis of bio-medica...
A hash table is a representation of a set in a linear size data structure that supports constanttime membership queries. We show how to construct a hash table for any given set of...
Optimization of execution plans in information mediators is a critical task, specially when sources are remote and semistructured, as in the case of transactional web sites. Lack ...
In this paper, we study a simple SQL extension that enables query writers to explicitly limit the cardinality of a query result. We examine its impact on the query optimization an...
A data structure, called a biased range tree, is presented that preprocesses a set S of n points in R2 and a query distribution D for 2-sided orthogonal range counting queries. The...
