When issuing user-specific queries, users often have a vaguely defined information need. Skyline queries identify the most "interesting" objects for users' incomplet...
Consider any known sequential algorithm for matrix multiplication over an arbitrary ring with time complexity ON , where 2 3. We show that such an algorithm can be parallelize...
† In this paper, we propose a parallel randomized algorithm, called Parallel Fast Assignment using Search Technique (PFAST), for scheduling parallel programs represented by direc...
Queries are widely used for acquiring data distributed in opportunistically formed mobile networks. However, when queries are executed in such dynamic settings, the returned result...
Modern digital libraries require user-friendly and yet responsive access to the rapidly growing, heterogeneous, and distributed collection of information sources. However, the inc...
