Even though the large body of knowledge of relational query optimization techniques can be utilized as a starting point for object-oriented query optimization the full exploitatio...
Abstract. The degree of locality of a program re ects the level of temporal and spatial concentration of related data and computations. Locality optimization can speed up programs ...
An image segmentation scheme that utilizes image-based flow fields in a curve evolution framework is presented. Geometric curve evolution methods require an edge function and a ve...

Abstract. Continuity of the mapping from initial endowments and utilities to equilibria is an essential property for a desirable model of an economy – without continuity, small e...
