We study similarity queries for time series data where similarity is defined in terms of a set of linear transformations on the Fourier series representation of a sequence. We hav...
In this paper we study the node distribution of an Rtree storing region data, like for instance islands, lakes or human-inhabited areas. We will show that real region datasets are...
As mobile computing devices become more and more popular, mobile databases have started gaining popularity. An important feature of these database systems is their ability to allo...
InfoSleuth1is an agent-based system for information discovery and retrieval in a dynamic, open environment. This paper discusses InfoSleuth's multibroker design and implement...
Most operations of the relational algebra or SQL require a sorted stream of tuples for efficient processing. Therefore, processing complex relational queries relies on efficient a...
Modern digital libraries require user-friendly and yet responsive access to the rapidly growing, heterogeneous, and distributed collection of information sources. However, the inc...
This paper proposes methodologies to control the access of B-tree-indexed data in a batch and real-time fashion. Algorithms are proposed to insert, query, delete, and rebalance B-...
Nowadays, structured data such as sales and business forms are stored in data warehouses for decision makers to use. Further, unstructured data such as emails, html texts, images,...
OLAP systems support data analysis through a multidimensional data model, according to which data facts are viewed as points in a space of application-related dimensions", or...
