β¦ Synopsis
We define a set of arbitrarily-shaped objects in Rd to be a low-density environmenr if any axis-parallel hypercube intersects only few objects of comparable or larger size. Generalizing and simplifying previous results for fat objects, we present a data structure for point location in a low-density environment, and we show how this data structure can be extended to perform range search queries with query ranges of size comparable to the smallest object.

## Abstract The author presents a design case study of a search user interface for Web catalogs in the context of online shopping for consumer products such as clothing, furniture, and sporting goods. The case study provides a review of the user data for the user interface (UI), and the resulting r
Technologies based on micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS) present advantages for downhole oilfield applications since they enable the fabrication of small sensors with fast response times. Furthermore, by incorporating MEMS sensors in a microfluidic environment it would be possible to make repre
Area concentrated search provides a means by which foragers may exploit heterogeneities in a resource following a simple rule of thumb which reacts to encounters with that resource by changing search speeds. A model with few parameters is presented. It permits an analysis of optimal searching rules
