Scientific instruments, such as radio telescopes, colliders, sensor networks, and simulators generate very high volumes of data streams that scientists analyze to detect and under...
— We consider decision-making problems in Markov decision processes where both the rewards and the transition probabilities vary in an arbitrary (e.g., nonstationary) fashion. We...
This paper argues that most queries in object-oriented databases require traversing from one object to another in the aggregation hierarchy. Thus, the connections between objects ...
Rapid growth of internet applications has increased the importance of intrusion detection system (IDS) performance. String matching is the most computation-consuming task in IDS. ...
We present the first complete translation of XPath into an algebra, paving the way for a comprehensive, state-of-theart XPath (and later on, XQuery) compiler based on algebraic op...
