For half a century since computers came into existence, the goal of finding elegant and efficient algorithms to solve "simple" (welldefined and well-structured) problems ...
Continuous queries are queries for which responses given to users must be continuously updated, as the sources of interest get updated. Such queries occur, for instance, during on...
When using Bayesian networks, practitioners often express constraints among variables by conditioning a common child node to induce the desired distribution. For example, an ‘orâ...
The deluge of huge data sets such as those provided by
sensor networks, online transactions, and the web provide
exciting opportunities for data analysis. The scale of the
