Database query optimizers rely on data statistics in selecting query execution plans. Similar query optimization techniques are desirable for deductive databases and, to make this...
In this paper, we present SURCH, a novel decentralized algorithm for efficient processing of queries generated in sensor networks. Unlike existing techniques, SURCH is fully dist...
As XQuery nears standardization, more sophisticated XQuery applications are emerging, which often exploit the entire language and are applied to non-trivial XML sources. We propos...
