A bstract We propose a broad class of d -dimensional conformal field theories SU( N ) adjoint scalar fields generalising the 4 Fishnet CFT (FCFT) discovered by Ö. Gürdogan and one authors as special limit γ -deformed $$ \mathcal{N} N = SYM theory. In planar → ∞ FCFTs are dominated “fishnet” Feynman graphs. Th...

We present a semantic caching approach for optimizing the performance of information mediators A critical problem with informa tion mediators particularly those gathering and integrating information from Web sources is a high query response time This is be cause the data needed to answer user queries is present across several di erent Web sources and in several pages within a source and re trie...
