We study the problem of finding efficient equivalent viewbased rewritings of relational queries, focusing on query optimization using materialized views under the assumption that ...
In this paper we propose a lightweight algorithm for constructing multi-resolution data representations for sensor networks. We compute, at each sensor node u, O(log n) aggregates...
RAVE (Real-time Answer Validation Engine) is a logic-based answer validator/selector designed for real-time question answering. Instead of proving a hypothesis for each answer, RAV...
This paper investigates randomization and replication as strategies to achieve reliable performance in disk arrays targeted for video-on-demand (VoD) workloads. A disk array can p...
Remote sensing applications often concern very large volumes of spatio-temporal data, the emerging Grid computing technologies bring an effective solution to this problem. The Open...
