We present a new fast algorithm for rendering the depthof-field effect for point-based surfaces. The algorithm handles partial occlusion correctly, it does not suffer from intens...
: This paper presents the iQser approach, a new semantic technology promising to overcome some of the shortcomings of current semantic enterprise solutions. The iQser technology is...
Abstract: Probabilistically constrained problems, in which the random variables are finitely distributed, are nonconvex in general and hard to solve. The p-efficiency concept has b...
This paper investigates the view update problem for XML views published from relational data. We consider (possibly) recursively defined XML views, compressed into DAGs and stored...
