We consider the problem of estimating CPU (distance computations) and I/O costs for processing range and k-nearest neighbors queries over metric spaces. Unlike the specific case ...
Increasingly, new applications are being built by composing existing software components rather than by coding a system from scratch. Using this approach, applications can be buil...
One of the price tags attached to the blessings that OO brings about is a drop in efficiency due to dynamic method dispatch. Much research effort is being spent on the problem of e...
Abstract. HySpirit is a retrieval engine for hypermedia retrieval integrating concepts from information retrieval (IR) and deductive databases. The logical view on IR models retrie...
