Structure Based XML Indexing
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)The increase in the usage and popularity of semi-structured data has received considerable attention, and a lot of research is going on for the efficient retrieval and storage of semi-structured data. A popular model and ... -
Graph-based Learning Using A Naive Bayesian Classifier
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)Graph-based data representation is becoming increasingly more commonplace, as graphs can represent some kinds of data more efficiently than relational tables. As such, interesting patterns in the form of subgraphs can be ... -
A Relational Database Approach For Frequent Subgraph Mining
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)Data mining aims at discovering interesting and previously unknown patterns from data sets. Further more, graph-based data mining represents a collection of techniques for mining the relational aspects of data represented ... -
A Dynamic Framework For Testing The Synchronization Behavior Of Java Monitors
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)A Java monitor is a specialized class that is used to synchronize the behavior of threads in a Java program. The monitors in a Java program must be adequately tested to ensure the correctness of the program. In this thesis ... -
An Emperical Evaluation Of Adequacy Criteria For Testing Concurrent Programs
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)A concurrent program contains two or more threads that execute concurrently and work together to perform some task. Concurrency increases the efficiency of a program. Testing of concurrent programs has been a challenging ... -
Approaches For Validating Frequent Episodes Based On Periodicity In Time-series Data
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)There is ongoing research on sequence mining of time-series data. We study Hybrid Apriori, an interval-based approach to episode discovery that deals with different periodicities in time-series data. Our study identifies ... -
Comparison Of Search-based And Kernel-based Methods For Graph-based Relational Learning
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)Graph-based relational learning has been the focus of relational learning for quite some time. As most of the real-world data is structured, and hence cannot be represented in a single table, various logic-based and ... -
Evading Existing Stepping Stone Detection Methods Using Buffering
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)To gain anonymity and complicate their apprehension, attackers launch attacks not from their own systems but from previously compromised systems called stepping stones. An effective way to detect stepping stones is by ... -
An Application Of Parallel And Distributed Computing Methods To Approximate Pattern Matching Of Genetic Regulatory Motifs
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)Bioinformatics is a relatively new scientific field concerned with providing computational means and support to research in molecular biology and genetics. It draws from many different areas of computer science, including ... -
Automatic Content Analysis Of Endoscopy Video (Endoscopic Multimedia Information System)
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)Advances in video technology are being incorporated into today's healthcare practice. For example, various types of endoscopes are used for colonoscopy, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, enteroscopy, bronchoscopy, cystoscopy, ... -
Evolving Modular Programs By Extracting Reusable Functions Using Significance Testing
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)Genetic programming is an automatic programming method that uses biologically inspired methods to evolve programs. Genetic programming, and evolutionary methods in general, are useful for problem domains in which a method ... -
Concept-based Search Using Parallel Query Expansion
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)We address the problem of irrelevant results for short queries on Web search engines. Short queries fail to provide sufficient context to disambiguate possible meanings associated with the search terms resulting in a set ... -
Integration Of The SAM-grid Infrastructure To The D0 Data Reprocessing Effort
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)The D0 experiment is one of the two high energy physics experiments currently being conducted at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, in Batavia, IL, on what is currently the world's highest energy particle accelerator, ... -
Multi-dimensional Indexing For XML Data
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is becoming a dominant standard for exchanging and retrieving data over the internet. As XML in data exchanging grows, various XML indexing techniques have been proposed for fast and ... -
Service Discovery By Automated Structural And Semantic Matching
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)Pervasive computing systems need to locate and use services dynamically. Current models of service location and interaction rely on a fixed contract, or service description, located by name and/or a combination of keywords. ... -
Medical Decision Support System Using Augmentable Guideline Engine
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)Increasing life expectancy accompanied by existing growth of wireless infrastructure and ubiquitous computing technologies has given healthcare providers access to vital information within their healthcare networks. Medical ... -
Runtime Optimization And Load Shedding In MavStream: Design And Implementation
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)In data stream processing systems Quality of Service (or QoS) is extremely important. The system should try its best to meet the QoS requirements specified by a user. On account of this difference, unlike in a database ... -
