Conventional operators for data retrieval are either based on exact matching or on total order relationship among elements. Neither of them is appropriate to manage complex data, s...
We address the problem of answering Web ontology queries efficiently. An ontology is formalized as a Deductive Ontology Base (DOB), a deductive database that comprises the ontology...
Energy management is a critical concern in the design of embedded systems to prolong the lifetime or to maximize the performance under energy constraints. In particular, the emerg...
Abstract. We introduce a compact and efficient representation of elements of the algebraic torus. This allows us to design a new discretelog based public-key system achieving the o...
We present an approach for optimizing the performance of information agents by materializing useful information . A critical problem with information agents, particularly those ga...
