A Functional Database Representation of Large Sets of Objects

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 8506))

Abstract

This paper explores a novel way of implementing set-valued operators that are used in analysis and retrieval in large social networks. The software we describe has been implemented and thoroughly tested in several demanding applications.
