Nearest neighbor (NN) search in high dimensional feature space is widely used for similarity retrieval of multimedia information. However, recent research results in the database ...
A common criticism of database systems is that they are hard to query for users uncomfortable with a formal query language. To address this problem, form-based interfaces and keyw...

We present a new hybrid algorithm for local search in distributed combinatorial optimization. This method is a mix between classical local search methods in which nodes take decis...
—By combining an unstructured protocol with a DHT-based global index, hybrid peer-to-peer (P2P) improves search efficiency in terms of query recall and response time. The major c...
— In this paper, we study search algorithms for using a set of autonomous and cooperative mobile sensor nodes (MSN) with limited sensing and communication ranges to search a larg...
