Bitmap indexes are widely used in Decision Support Systems (DSSs) to improve query performance. In this paper, we evaluate the use of compressed inverted indexes with adapted quer...
We introduce and study a new class of queries that we refer to as ACMA (arithmetic constraints on multiple attributes) queries. Such combinatorial queries require the simultaneous...
The paper describes how the Web can be used as a support for intensive querying and display of large moving objects databases. We present first an architecture for a system which ...
Abstract. Query expansion has received extensive attention in information retrieval community. Although semantic based query expansion appears to be promising in improving retrieva...
Although, computational Grid has been initially developed to solve large-scale scientific research problems, it is extended for commercial and industrial applications. An interest...
