We address the problem of querying XML data over a P2P network. In P2P networks, the allowed kinds of queries are usually exact-match queries over file names. We discuss the exte...
: The “Grid” is an emerging infrastructure for coordinating access across autonomous organizations to distributed, heterogeneous computation and data resources. Data grids are ...
In this paper, we introduce a probabilistic relational data model as the basis for developing multi-agent probabilistic reasoning systems. Since our model subsumes the traditional...
Secure, fault-tolerant distributed systems are difficult to build, to validate, and to operate. Conservative design for such systems dictates that their security and fault toleran...
Advances in geographical information systems (GIS) and supporting data collection technology has resulted in the rapid collection of a huge amount of spatial data. However, known ...
