WIC: A General-Purpose Algorithm for Monitoring Web Information Sources
Summary: WIC provides a general-purpose algorithm to convert pull-based Web sources into push-based streams for continuous query systems. It formalizes the timeliness–completeness tradeoff under resource limits and yields a parameterized 2-approximation (optimal in some cases) to balance them. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
