Infinite nature of sensor data poses a serious challenge for query processing even in a cloud infrastructure. Model-based sensor data approximation reduces the amount of data for query processing, but all modeled segments need to be scanned, in the worst c ...
The explosive growth in digital data and its growing role in real-time decision support motivate the design of high-performance database management systems (DBMSs). Meanwhile, slowdown in supply voltage scaling has stymied improvements in core performance ...
The impact of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks on the Internet landscape is undisputed. It has led to a series of new applications, e.g., as part of the so-called Web 2.0. The shift from the classical client-server based paradigm of the Internet, with a clear d ...
The state-of-the-art techniques for processing multi-term queries in P2P environments are query flooding and inverted list intersection. However, it has been shown that due to scalability reasons both methods fail to support full-text search in large scale ...

A major component of many cloud services is query processing on data stored in the underlying cloud cluster. The traditional techniques for query processing on a cluster are those offered by parallel DBMS. These techniques however, cannot guarantee high pe ...
Recent trends have led hardware manufacturers to place multiple processing cores on a single chip, making parallel programming the intended way of taking advantage of the increased processing power. However, bringing concurrency to average programmers is c ...
Over the past 40 years, hard disks, the traditional building block of storage systems, have become increasingly slower when compared to the other system components such as the main memory and the CPU. Hard disks face mechanical constraints that cause their ...
Conventional data warehouses employ the query- at-a-time model, which maps each query to a distinct physical plan. When several queries execute concurrently, this model introduces contention and thrashing, because the physical plans—unaware of each other—c ...
