In order to enable scalable querying of graph databases, intelligent selection of subgraphs to index is essential. An improved index can reduce response times for graph queries si...
This paper describes the application of evolutionary search to the problem of Flash memory wear-out. The operating parameters of Flash memory are notoriously difficult to determin...
A comfort zone is a tested region of a system’s input space within which it has been observed to behave acceptably. To keep systems operating within their comfort zones, we advo...
The classical (ad hoc) document retrieval problem has been traditionally approached through ranking according to heuristically developed functions (such as tf.idf or bm25) or gene...
Currently in document retrieval there are many algorithms each with different strengths and weakness. There is some difficulty, however, in evaluating the impact of the test quer...
