— In the context of adaptive query processing (AQP), several techniques have been proposed for dynamically adapting/redistributing processor load assignments throughout a computa...
Scientific instruments, such as radio telescopes, colliders, sensor networks, and simulators generate very high volumes of data streams that scientists analyze to detect and under...
Existing estimation approaches for multi-dimensional databases often rely on the assumption that data distribution in a small region is uniform, which seldom holds in practice. Mo...
We systematically compare five representative state-of-theart methods for estimating query language models with pseudo feedback in ad hoc information retrieval, including two var...
For complex queries in parallel database systems, substantial amounts of data must be redistributed between operators executed on different processing nodes. Frequently, such inter...
