In this paper, we investigate the problem of answering top-k queries via materialized views. We provide theoretical guarantees for the adequacy of a view to answer a top-k query, ...
We study the problem of continuous monitoring of top-k queries over multiple non-synchronized streams. Assuming a sliding window model, this general problem has been a well addres...
