Since the beginning of the multi-core era, database systems research has restarted focusing on increasing concurrency. Even though database systems have been able to accommodate concurrent requests, the exploding number of available cores per chip has surf ...
This paper approaches the incremental view maintenance problem from an algebraic perspective. We construct a ring of databases and use it as the foundation of the design of a query calculus that allows to express powerful aggregate queries. The query calcu ...
This project proposes a new approach to interact with database systems through programming languages. A formal query language can be integrated within modern programming languages and the semi-structured queries can be evaluated using automatic transformat ...
Many data-driven social and Web applications involve collaboration and coordination. The vision of Declarative Data-Driven Coordination (D3C), proposed in Kot et al. [2010], is to support coordination in the spirit of data management: to make it data-centr ...
In this paper we evaluate and compare six well-known foreground from background subtraction methods against a standard database. To be able to compare these algorithms objectively, we have chosen three challengeable scenarios from this database. The algori ...
Numerous applications demand that we manipulate large sets of very high-dimensional signals. A simple yet common example is the problem of finding those signals in a database that are closest to a query. In this paper, we tackle this problem by restricting ...
The influence of the constant life diagram (CLD) formulation on the fatigue life prediction of composite materials was examined. Most commonly used and recently proposed CLDs applied on composite materials fatigue data are presented and their applicability ...
Numerous applications demand that we manipulate large sets of very high-dimensional signals. A simple yet common example is the problem of finding those signals in a database that are closest to a query. In this paper, we tackle this problem by restricting ...
Efficient and effective search in large-scale data repositories requires complex indexing solutions deployed on a large number of servers. Web search engines such as Google and Yahoo! already rely upon complex systems to be able to return relevant query re ...
Computing statistical measures for large databases of time series is a fundamental primitive for querying and mining time-series data [1–6]. This primitive is gaining importance with the increasing number and rapid growth of time series databases. In this ...
