We consider the maximization problem in the value oracle model of functions defined on k-tuples of sets that are submodular in every orthant and r-wise monotone, where k >= 2 and 1
The machine tool data model of STEP-NC (ISO 14649) was conceived as a necessary extension to the original STEP-NC set of standards to make efficient control possible. The intention of this paper is to describe the background to the data model as well as re ...
Many data-intensive applications require real-time analytics over streaming data. In a growing number of domains -- sensor network monitoring, social web applications, clickstream analysis, high-frequency algorithmic trading, and fraud detections to name a ...
In this paper, we prove several extremal results for geometrically defined hypergraphs. In particular, we establish an improved lower bound, single exponentially decreasing in k, on the best constant delta > 0 such that the vertex classes P-1,...,P-k of ev ...

We present the design and implementation of a SQL query processor that outperforms existing database systems and is written in just about 500 lines of Scala code - a convincing case study that high-level functional programming can handily beat C for system ...
This article investigates the evolution of data quality issues from traditional structured data managed in relational databases to Big Data. In particular, the paper examines the nature of the relationship between Data Quality and several research coordina ...
