In this paper, we show that any n point metric space can be embedded into a distribution over dominating tree metrics such that the expected stretch of any edge is O(log n). This ...
Though skyline queries already have claimed their place in retrieval over central databases, their application in Web information systems up to now was impossible due to the distri...
Index trees created using distance based indexing are difficult to maintain online since the distance function involved is often costly to compute. This problem is intensified whe...
Wireless sensor networks typically consist of a large number of sensor nodes embedded in a physical space. Such sensors are low-power devices that are primarily used for monitoring...
Our study addresses the problem of large-scale contradiction detection and management, from data extracted from the Web. We describe the first systematic solution to the problem,...
