Database system architectures are undergoing revolutionary changes. Most importantly, algorithms and data are being unified by integrating programming languages with the database ...
Fast global illumination computation is a challenge in several fields such as lighting simulation and computergenerated visual effects for movies. To this end, the irradiance cac...
There are currently a large number of ‘‘orphan’’ G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) whose endogenous ligands (peptide hormones) are unknown. Identification of these pepti...
Networks often form the core of many users’ spatial databases. Networks are used to support the rapid navigation and analysis of linearly connected data such as that found in tra...
This paper explores the use of multi-dimensional trees to provide spatial and temporal e ciencies in imaging large data sets. Each node of the tree contains a model of the data in...
