—We present an overview of the combinatorial framework for similarity search. An algorithm is combinatorial if only direct comparisons between two pairwise similarity values are ...
Graphs are prevailingly used in many applications to model complex data structures. In this paper, we study the problem of supergraph containment search. To avoid the NP-complete s...
This paper presents a region splitting strategy for physical database design of multidimensional le organizations. Physical database design is the process of determining the optim...
A common technique for improving performance for database query retrieval is to decluster the database among multiple disks so that retrievals can be parallelized. In this paper we...
In this article, we propose a new approach for querying and indexing a database of trees with specific applications to XML datasets. Our approach relies on representing both the q...
