A Cloud may be seen as a type of flexible computing infrastructure consisting of many compute nodes, where resizable computing capacities can be provided to different customers. T...
We propose a new efficient indexing scheme, called the HG-tree, to support content-based retrieval in image databases. Image content is represented by a point in a multidimensional...
We suggest a variation of the Hellerstein-Koutsoupias--Papadimitriou indexability model for datasets equipped with a similarity measure, with the aim of better understanding the s...
We propose and evaluate two indexing schemes for improving the efficiency of data retrieval in high-dimensional databases that are incomplete. These schemes are novel in that the ...
Indexing schemes for semistructured data have been developed in recent years to optimize path query processing by summarizing path information. However, most of these schemes can ...
Providing scalable database services is an essential requirement for extending many existing applications of the Cloud platform. Due to the diversity of applications, database ser...

We introduce an indexing scheme for the vertices of semi-regular meshes, based on interleaving quadtrees rooted on the edges of the base mesh. Using this indexing scheme we develo...
