We study the problem of answering queries posed on virtual views of XML documents, a problem commonly encountered when enforcing XML access control and integrating data. We approa...
We consider the problem of creating a sample view of a database table. A sample view is an indexed, materialized view that permits efficient sampling from an arbitrary range query...
Materialized views, a rdbms silver bullet, demonstrate its efficacy in many applications, especially as a data warehousing/decison support system tool. The pivot of playing materia...
