The quadratic form distance (QFD) has been utilized as an effective similarity function in multimedia retrieval, in particular, when a histogram representation of objects is used...
We investigate the complexity of performing updates on probabilistic XML data for various classes of probabilistic XML documents of different succinctness. We consider two elemen...
Spatial cognition and program development have both been examined using contrasting models. We suggest that sex-based differences in one’s perception of risk is the key to relat...
Register allocation is one of the most important optimizations a compiler performs. Conventional graphcoloring based register allocators are fast and do well on regular, RISC-like...
