In-network sensor query processing systems (ISQPs), or sensor databases, have been developed to acquire, process and aggregate data from wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Because W...
In this paper, we present two linear-size external memory data structures for approximate range searching. Our first structure, the BAR-B-tree, stores a set of N points in Rd and ...
One of the most powerful features of SQL is the use of nested queries. Most research work on the optimization of nested queries focuses on aggregate subqueries. However, the solut...
Combining retrieval results from multiple modalities plays a crucial role for video retrieval systems, especially for automatic video retrieval systems without any user feedback a...
Several query languages have been proposed for managing data streams in modern monitoring applications. Continuous queries expressed in these languages usually employ windowing con...
