Structurally distinct constellation labelings exist within both the Gray code and the set-partitioning paradigm. Different labeling choices within either paradigm can provide diffe...
In this paper we study how to build an effective incremental crawler. The crawler selectively and incrementally updates its index and/or local collection of web pages, instead of ...
: This paper introduces an efficient hierarchical algorithm capable of simulating light transfer for complex scenes containing non-diffuse surfaces. The algorithmstemsfroma newfor...
We address the problem of finding parallel plans for SQL queries using the two-phase approach of join ordering and query rewrite (JOQR) followed by parallelization. We focus on t...
This paper examines the problem of adding non-deterministic constructs to a declarative database language based on Horn Clause Logic. We revise a previously proposed approach, the...
