Linear optimization queries retrieve the top-K tuples in a sliding window of a data stream that maximize/minimize the linearly weighted sums of certain attribute values. To effici...
Moving object databases store and process data for objects that change location frequently. Materialized views maintained over time must be updated to reflect changes due to the m...
We study the problem of continuous monitoring of top-k queries over multiple non-synchronized streams. Assuming a sliding window model, this general problem has been a well addres...
Preference elicitation — the process of asking queries to determine parties’ preferences — is a key part of many problems in electronic commerce. For example, a shopping age...
Consider mobile targets moving in a plane and their movements being monitored by a network such as a field of sensors. We develop distributed algorithms for in-network tracking an...
