Abstract. Peer-to-Peer (P2P) data management systems combine traditional schema-based integration techniques with the P2P infrastructure. In this paper, we propose a P2P data manag...
The paper introduces value precedence on integer and set sequences. A useful application of the notion is in breaking symmetries of indistinguishable values, an important class of ...
Abstract. With the emerging mass production of very small, cheap Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags, it is becoming feasible to deploy such tags on a large scale. In this ...
We present an optimization algorithm that combines active learning and locally-weighted regression to find extreme points of noisy and complex functions. We apply our algorithm to...
Reuse of knowledge bases and the semantic web are two promising areas in knowledge technologies. Given some user requirements, finding the suitable ontologies is an important task...
