Signature File Hashing Using Term Occurrence and Query Frequencies
(1992-08-01)Signature files act as a filter on retrieval to discard a large number of non-qualifying data items. Linear hashing with superimposed signatures (LHSS) provides an effective retrieval filter to process queries in dynamic ... -
Signature Files: An Integrated Access Method for Formatted and Unformatted Databases
(1993-05-01)The signature file approach is one of the most powerful information storage and retrieval techniques which is used for finding the data objects that are relevant to the user queries. The main idea of all signature based ... -
A Simple System Dynamics Model For the Wildlife and Fish Resource
(1987-08-01)This research aims to build a dynamic model to describe the major relationships within the "Wildlife and Fish" element of the Forest Service. Our purpose is to capture the major relationships so that the model is capable ... -
A Simulation Game for Software Project Management
(1992-03-01)The software industry is one of the most rapidly growing businesses in our age. Yet, this growth has not been a wellbalanced one. On the one hand, on the technical side, programming languages, programming techniques and ... -
A Simulation of Rapid Evolution: Its Development in the Object-Oriented Paradigm
(1993-01-01)This project centered around an event in population genetics, the modeling necessary to explain it, and the way that the object-oriented paradigm influenced the implementation of the model. This paper is divided into three ... -
