Cheriton School of Computer Science data systems researchers receive 2022 ACM SIGMOD Research Highlight Award

Cheriton students Jeremy Chen, Yuqing Huang and Mushi Wang and Professors Semih Salihoğlu and Ken Salem have received a 2022 ACM SIGMOD Research Highlight Award for their paper “Accurate summary-based cardinality estimation through the lens of cardinality estimation graphs.” No stranger to scholarly recognition, this research earlier received the Best Experiment, Analysis and Benchmark Award at VLDB 2022, the 48th International Conference on Very Large Databases, where it was presented originally.

PhD Seminar • Algorithms and Complexity • Distance Oracles for Interval Graphs via Breadth-First Rank/Select in Succinct Trees

Please note: This PhD seminar will take place in DC 1304 and virtually over Zoom.

Kaiyu (Kevin) Wu, PhD candidate
David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science

Supervisor: Professor J. Ian Munro

We present succinct distance oracles for (unweighted) interval graphs and related classes of graphs, using a novel succinct data structure for ordinal trees that supports the mapping between preorder (i.e., depth-first) ranks and level-order (breadth-first) ranks of nodes in constant time.
