For noisy optimization problems, there is generally a trade-off between the effort spent to reduce the noise (in order to allow the optimization algorithm to run properly), and t...
We consider the issues of implicitness and cache-obliviousness in the classical dictionary problem for n distinct keys over an unbounded and ordered universe. One finding in this ...
We investigate the typechecking problem for XML queries: statically verifying that every answer to a query conforms to a given output schema, for inputs satisfying a given input sc...
In this paper, we study the data dissemination problem in time-constrained mobile computing systems (TCMCS) in which maximizing data currency (minimizing staleness) and meeting tr...

This paper is about client-specific customization of systems that implement an on-line Internet service in the presence of simultaneous client-specific views. The problem is that ...
