Recently, unstructured data is rapidly being produced based on web-based services. NoSQL systems and key value stores that process unstructured data as key and value pairs are widely used in various applications. In this paper, a study was conducted on a skip list used for in-memory data management in an LSM-tree based key value store. The skip list used in the key value store is an insertion-based skip list that does not allow overwriting and processes all changes only by inserting. This behavior can support Multi-Version Concurrency Control (MVCC), which can simultaneously process multiple read/write requests through snapshot isolation. However, since duplicate keys exist in the skip list, the performance significantly degrades due to unnecessary node visits during a list traverse. In particular, serious overhead occurs when a range query or scan operation that collectively searches a specific range of data occurs. This paper proposes a newly designed Stride SkipList to reduce this overhead. The stride skip list additionally maintains an indexing pointer for the last node of the same key to avoid unnecessary node visits. The proposed scheme is implemented using RocksDB's in-memory component, and the performance evaluation shows that the performance of SCAN operation improves by up to 350 times compared to the existing skip list for various workloads.

In recent years, the number of users who are actively express their opinions about Internet articles is more and more growing up, as the use of cyber community such as weblog or Internet discussion board increases. In fact, it is not difficult to find an article with hundreds of comments in famous Internet discussion boards. Most of the weblogs or Internet discussion boards present comments in the form of list and do not yet support even the basic operation such as searching comments. In this paper, we analysed large sets of comments in Internet discussion board named AGORA. It was found that from the result that the distribution of comment writers follows power-law. So we suppose a new search structure of comments using skip lists. The main idea of our approach is to reflect the probabilistic distribution properties of the commenters following the power-law to the data structure. Our empirical results show that the proposed method performs more efficient in searching the nodes with fewer number of comparison operations than logN, which is the theoretical time complexity of general indexed structure such as B-trees or typical skip lists.

P2P 시스템의 주요 이슈는 자원 (resource) 을 효율적으로 저장하고 찾는 것이다. 자원 탐색 프로토콜은 초기의 Napster, Gnutella와 같은 형태에서 발전하여, 현재는 분산 해시 테이블 (Distributed Hash Table을 사용한 형태로 발전하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 분산 해시 테이블을 사용한 P2P 프로토콜인 Magic Square를 제안한다. Magic Square에 참여하는 칵 노드는 양방향 스킬리스트로 구성된 지역 라우팅 테이블과 임의의 노드로 구성된 전역 라우팅 테이블을 가진다. 지역 라우팅 테이블은 각 노드의 능력을 고려하여 구성된다. 스킵리스트를 사용하였기 때문에 탐색과 노드의 추가라 삭제 과정이 간단하며. P2P 네트워크가 자주 바뀌어도 큰 영향을 받지 않는다.

Pointer Networks is a model which generates an output sequence with elements that correspond to an input sequence, based on the attention mechanism. A time complexity of the pointer networks is $O(N^2)$ resulting in longer decoding time of the model. This is because the model calculates attention for each input, if size of the input sequence is N. In this paper, we propose the pointer networks based on skip pointing model, which confirms the necessary input vector at decoding for reducing the decoding time of the pointer networks. Furthermore, experiments were conducted for the pronouns coreference resolution, which uses the method proposed in this paper. Our results show that the processing time per sentence was approximately 1.15 times faster, and the MUC F1 was 83.60%; this was approximately 2.17% improvement and a better performance than the original pointer networks.

In traditional Publish/Subscribe system, the first procedure to deliver event from publisher to subscriber is that publisher publishes publisher's event to broker. Next step is that broker checks simple binary notion of matching : an event either matches a subscription or it does not. Lastly, broker delivers the event matched with subscriptions to the corresponding subscribers. In this system, information delivery has been accomplished in one way only. However, current some applications require two way delivery between subscriber and publisher. Therefore, we initiate an extended Publish/Subscribe system that supports two way delivery. Extended Publish/Subscribe system requires additional functions of delivering subscription to publisher and especially deciding top-n subscriptions using priority because broker might has a number of subscriptions. In this paper, we propose two priority retrieval techniques based on SIF using IS-List with deciding priority among subscriptions and defining SIF(Specific Interval First). The performance measurements show that RSO(resulting set sorting) technique results in better performance in index creation time and ITS&IS(insertion time sorting and inverse search using stack) technique results in better performance in search time.
