Wavefront algorithms, such as the Smith-Waterman algorithm, are commonly used in bioinformatics for exact local and global sequence alignment. These algorithms are highly computat...
In this work we present in-network techniques to improve the efficiency of spatial aggregate queries. Such queries are very common in a sensornet setting, demanding more targeted t...

The observations in many applications consist of counts of discrete events, such as photons hitting a detector, which cannot be effectively modeled using an additive bounded or Ga...

We address the problem of finding sparse wavelet representations of high-dimensional vectors. We present a lower-bounding technique and use it to develop an algorithm for computi...
