Watermarking allows robust and unobtrusive insertion of information in a digital document. Very recently, techniques have been proposed for watermarking relational databases or XM...
We present three results related to dynamic convex hulls: • A fully dynamic data structure for maintaining a set of n points in the plane so that we can find the edges of the c...
In GIS and spatial databases, cardinal directions are frequently used as selection and join criteria in query languages. However, most cardinal direction models are only able to h...
We study and provide efficient algorithms for multi-objective model checking problems for Markov Decision Processes (MDPs). Given an MDP, M, and given multiple linear-time (ω-regu...
