Efficient processing of top-k queries has become a classical research area. Fagin et al. proposed the "middleware cost" for a top-k query algorithm. In some scenario, there is no way to perform a random access, and Fagin et al. proposed NRA (No Random access) algorithm for that. In this paper, we investigate the intrinsic relation between top-k queries and K-skyband queries. Based on that relation, we propose a novel algorithm DNRA (Dominate-NRA). The main idea of DNRA is to partition the original dataset into two sub-datasets depending on whether they belong to K-skyband or not. We prove that DNRA performs no more sorted accesses than NRA on any dataset. Furthermore, we partition the dataset into N sub-datasets (N is the number of objects in the dataset), and then we propose our algorithm ADNRA (Advanced-DNRA). The partition of the dataset is pre-computed, and we discuss two techniques to fulfill it. Extensive experiments show that our algorithms perform several orders of magnitude fewer accesses than NRA and that ADNRA performs significantly fewer accesses than DNRA on some datasets.

In WiFi-based content distribution community infrastructure (CDCI), file servers are deployed in diverse locations around cities, caching popular files interesting to a community. They serve file download requests from mobile users in proximity via WiFi. In this paper, we study the optimal caching strategy for file servers in CDCI so that file retrieval probability within deadline is maximized, subject to storage constraint of each file server The optimal caching strategy depends on many factors, such as users' mobility patterns, access point topology, file popularity, etc. We have formalized this content management problem as a mixed integer optimization problem. Because of NP-hardness and a large variable space of this optimization problem, we propose a heuristic algorithm MobaSsign to allocate file blocks. Extensive experiments show that our heuristic caching strategy, considering mobility patterns improves the file retrieval probability within deadline.

During the last years, we have witnessed the boom of the digital market due to the proliferation of emergent audiovisual services and the increasing number of broadband networks. In this scenario, users insistently demand innovative services for exchanging and sharing their own audiovisual contents. In order to meet these needs, in this paper, we propose a system that broadcasts user-generated audiovisual contents for handheld devices in a mobile network based on the DVB-H broadcasting standard. Besides, our system offers diverse value-added services to these new active users, such as: (1) annotation, sharing and personalized distribution of audiovisual contents, (2) multi modal access, via Web or by client applications running locally in the handheld device, and (3) exploitation of return channels to transmit interactive contents that enhance the user's experience. To achieve these goals, our system adopts well-known technologies for broadcasting and semantic annotation of audiovisual contents, as well as emergent technology from Web 2.0 and Semantic Web. We have carried out tests involving a group of students from the University of Vigo, who were satisfied with the personalization capabilities offered by our TV system for mobile settings.

The multimedia data are more present in the actual informatics systems. Because of characteristics of multimedia data, their management and querying techniques are unlike than those of traditional data. We can increase the potential use of multimedia data across various applications by assuring semantics-driven access to multimedia data. In this paper we propose a solution, based on MPEG-21 standard, to describe the multimediacontent and to integrate it with the semantic web.

Virtualization and emulation techniques are getting better and better, and it feels thus natural to apply them to address the problem of data preservation for future contentaccess. In this paper, we virtualized a number of existing servers and clients and ran the virtual machines under VMware's hypervisor. Not all of the investigated operating systems could be virtualized successfully, and even with successful conversions often settings had to be reconfigurated, and support for particular devices had to be added manually. It is concluded that many operating systems are not flexible enough to allow for a problem-free conversion to a virtual machine.
