We study the efficient evaluation of top-k queries over data items, where the score of each item is dynamically computed by applying an item-specific function whose parameter valu...

Ecologists instrument ecosystems to collect time series representing the evolution in time and space of relevant abiotic and biotic factors. Sensor networks promise to improve on ...
The plenoptic function (Adelson and Bergen, 91) describes the visual information available to an observer at any point in space and time. Samples of the plenoptic function (POF) a...
Abstract—In this paper, we investigate the problem of maximizing the throughput over a finite-horizon time period for a sensor network with energy replenishment. The finite-horiz...

We say that a polynomial f(x1, . . . , xn) is indecomposable if it cannot be written as a product of two polynomials that are defined over disjoint sets of variables. The polynom...
