Sampling is a widely used technique to increase efficiency in database and data mining applications operating on large dataset. In this paper we present a scalable sampling imple...
Recent years saw the rapid development of peer-topeer (P2P) networks in a great variety of applications. However, similarity-based k-nearest-neighbor retrieval (k-NN) is still a c...
Single-particle tracking provides a powerful technique for measuring dynamic cellular processes on the level of individual molecules. Much recent work has been devoted to using si...
Continuous-time Markov chains (CTMCs) have been used successfully to model the dependability and performability of many systems. Matrix diagrams (MDs) are known to be a space-ef...
Sensor networks are useful for environmental monitoring, military applications, disaster management, etc. In many applications, sensors are supposed to know their geographic locat...
