Abstract. We show how to specify and use the metadata for a virtual and relational data integration system under the local-as-view (LAV) approach. We use XML and RuleML for represe...
There are many difficult challenges ahead in the design of an energy-efficient communication stack for wireless sensor networks. Due to the severe sensor node constraints, protocol...
Supporting legacy applications when the database schema evolves represents a long-standing challenge of practical and theoretical importance. Recent work has produced algorithms a...

—In this paper, we present an active volumetric model (AVM) for 3D reconstruction from multiple calibrated images of a scene. The AVM is a physically motivated 3D deformable mode...
Distributed storage systems must provide highly available access to data while maintaining high performance and maximum scalability. In addition, reliability in a storage system is...
