For data-collection applications in sensor networks, it is important to ensure all data sources have equal (or weighted) access to network bandwidth so that the base stations rece...
In the domain of logistics, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) promises a plethora of benefits due to an enhanced efficiency, accuracy, and preciseness of object identification...
In object recognition problems a two-stage system is usually adopted composed of a fast and simple detector and a more complex classifier. This paper studies a design of the secon...
Practical applications of description logics (DLs) in knowledge-based systems have forced us to introduce the following features which are absent from existing DLs: • allowing a...
Today, result sets of skyline queries are unmanageable due to their exponential growth with the number of query predicates. In this paper we discuss the incremental re-computation ...
