Supporting ranking queries in database systems has been a popular research topic recently. However, there is a lack of study on supporting ranking queries in data warehouses where...
The increasing complexity of enterprise databases and the prevalent lack of documentation incur significant cost in both understanding and integrating the databases. Existing solu...
This demo presents a privacy-preserving aggregate location monitoring system, namely, TinyCasper, in which we can monitor moving objects in wireless sensor networks while preservi...
Random sampling is an appealing approach to build synopses of large data streams because random samples can be used for a broad spectrum of analytical tasks. Users are often inter...
Existing temporal pattern mining assumes that events do not have any duration. However, events in many real world applications have durations, and the relationships among these ev...
Mobile devices equipped with positioning capabilities (e.g., GPS) can ask location-dependent queries to Location Based Services (LBS). To protect privacy, the user location must n...

Data lineage and data provenance are key to the management of scientific data. Not knowing the exact provenance and processing pipeline used to produce a derived data set often re...
Many scientific, financial, data mining and sensor network applications need to work with continuous, rather than discrete data e.g., temperature as a function of location, or sto...
In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), energy consumption and data quality are two important issues due to limited energy resources and the need for accurate data. In this scenario, i...
