The success of stochastic algorithms is often due to their ability to effectively amplify the performance of search heuristics. This is certainly the case with stochastic sampling ...
This paper presents a proximity route selection scheme which is adaptive to the underlying network conditions. The proposed scheme repeatedly estimates and updates the total lookup...
—Shortest distance query between two nodes is a fundamental operation in large-scale networks. Most existing methods in the literature take a landmark embedding approach, which s...
Abstract-- This work presents a novel index structure, MHRtree, for efficiently answering approximate string match queries in large spatial databases. The MHR-tree is based on the ...
