Many strategies for similarity search in image databases assume a metric and quadratic form-based similarity model where an optimal lower bounding distance function exists for fil...
In this paper, we introduce a rotating interrogation technique for sensor networks called Whirlpool. Whirlpool provides opportunities to optimize data delivery in time-critical mo...

In reinforcement learning problems it has been considered that neither exploitation nor exploration can be pursued exclusively without failing at the task. The optimal balance bet...
We propose a novel Partition Path-Based (PPB) grouping strategy to store compressed XML data in a stream of blocks. In addition, we employ a minimal indexing scheme called Block S...
Nowadays, large distributed databases are commonplace. Client applications increasingly rely on accessing objects from multiple remote hosts. The Internet itself is a huge network ...
