The concept of “approximate” searching has applications in a vast number of fields. Some examples are non-traditional databases (e. g. storing images, fingerprints or audio clips, where the concept of exact search is of no use and we search instead…

EQUIVALENCE OF SOME STRINGS. THESE ARE LOWERCASE VERUS UPPERCASE MATCHING, MORPHOLOGICAL INFLECTION, DERIVATION, AND SYNONYMY OF WORDS: E.G. GIVE A QUERY COMPUTER, FIND COMPUTER COMPUTING, WORKSTATION. THE LATTER PROBLEMS ARE VERY IMPORTANT IN LANGUAGES WITH RICHER MORPHOLOGY AND LESS STABLE…

El objetivo del proyecto Portal da Língua Portuguesa es construir, con un doble
objetivo, un juego de recursos léxicos. En primer lugar, estos recursos sirven como fuente de
información para una página web sobre la lengua portuguesa para el público…

Vertical partitioning, in which attributes of a relation are
assigned to partitions, is aimed at improving database
performance. We extend previous research that is based on
a single relation to multi-relation database environment,
by including referential integrity constraints, access time

THE GOAL OF THIS PAPER IS TO DOCUMENT THE USE OF TIME SERIES IN COLOR MATCHING. ALTHOUGH TIME SERIES ARE NOT COMMONLY USED FOR THIS PURPOSE, THE RESULTS OBTAINED, BASED ON THE PRINCIPLE OF SIMILARITY IN TIME SERIES USING THE…

Este artículo documenta los principales patrones y tendencias de las definiciones alternativas de la informalidad laboral en América Latina y el Caribe, mediante la utilización de una gran base de datos de más de 100 encuestas de hogares para el…

Software engineering has entered a new era, the Internet and its associated technologies require a different conceptual framework for building and understanding software solutions.
Users ask to develop applications more rapidly, and software engineers need to ensamble systems from preexisting…

SE REALIZÓ UN ANÁLISIS TEMPORAL Y ESPACIAL DE LA TEMPERATURA DEL AIRE EN EL DOSEL URBANO DE LA CIUDAD DE MEXICALI, B. C. Y ALREDEDORES RURALES. A UNA BASE DE DATOS DE LARGO PERÍODO (1950-2000) SE APLICARON VARIAS PRUEBAS ESTADÍSTICAS…

Nowadays, data intensive applications are in constant demand and there is need of computing environments with better intelligent capabilities than those present in today's Database Management Systems (DBMS). To build such systems we need formalisms that can perform complicate inferences,…

This paper presents a data structure based on Sparse Spatial Selection (SSS) for similarity searching. An algorithm that tries periodically to adjust pivots to the use of database index is presented. This index is dynamic. In this way, it is…
