Publish/subscribe systems utilize filter algorithms to determine all subscriptions matching incoming event messages. To distribute such services, subscriptions are forwarded to s...
We consider a class of geometric facility location problems in which the goal is to determine a set X of disks given by their centers (tj) and radii (rj) that cover a given set of...
The explosive growth of the vision data motivates the recent studies on efficient data indexing methods such as locality-sensitive hashing (LSH). Most existing approaches perform...
As cluster systems become increasingly popular, more and more parallel applications require need not only computing power but also significant I/O performance. However, the I/O s...
XML has emerged as the primary standard of data representation and data exchange [13]. Although many software tools exist to assist the XML implementation process, data must be ma...
