Progressive and selective merge: computing top-k with ad-hoc ranking functions
The family of threshold algorithm (i.e., TA) has been widely studied for efficiently computing top-k queries. TA uses a sort-merge framework that assumes data lists are pre-sorted...

Evaluation of probabilistic queries over imprecise data in constantly-evolving environments
Sensors are often employed to monitor continuously changing entities like locations of moving objects and temperature. The sensor readings are reported to a database system, and a...
