This paper addresses several problems associated with the specification of Web searches, and the retrieval, filtering, and rating of Web pages in order to improve the relevance, pr...
We propose new robust classification algorithms for planar and spatial curves subjected to affine transformations. Our motivation comes from the problems in computer image recognit...
In authorization-transparent access control, users formulate their queries against the database schema rather than against authorization views that transform and hide data. The Tru...
When two or more databases are combined into a global one, integrity may be violated even when each database is consistent with its own local integrity constraints. Efficient metho...
In this paper we propose a framework for decentralized model-based diagnosis of complex systems modeled with qualitative constraints and whose models are distributed among their s...
