We simulate different architectures of a distributed Information Retrieval system on a very large Web collection, in order to work out the optimal setting for a particular set of r...
Abstract. Machine learning techniques are increasingly being applied to problems in the domain of information retrieval and text mining. In this paper we present an application of ...
As sensor networks increase in size and number, efficient techniques are required to process the very large data sets that they generate. Frequently, sensor networks monitor object...
— We discuss the problem of resource provisioning for database management systems operating on top of an Infrastructure-As-A-Service (IaaS) cloud. To solve this problem, we descr...
A purely relational account of the true XQuery semantics can turn any relational database system into an XQuery processor. Compiling nested expressions of the fully compositional X...
