This paper introduces a framework for processing continuous, exact queries over continuous update XML streams. Instead of eagerly performing the updates on cached portions of the s...
We introduce a convoy query that retrieves all convoys from historical trajectories, each of which consists of a set of objects that travelled closely during a certain time period....
Abstract-- In recent years, data streams have become ubiquitous because of advances in hardware and software technology. The ability to adapt conventional mining problems to data s...
Databases of text and text-annotated data constitute a significant fraction of the information available in electronic form. Searching and browsing are the typical ways that users ...
