Execution plans produced by traditional query optimizers for data integration queries may yield poor performance for several reasons. The cost estimates may be inaccurate, the mem...
We present a data structure for efficient axis-aligned orthogonal range search on a set of n lines in a bounded plane. The algorithm requires O(log n + k) time in the worst case t...
We prove an (lg n) cell-probe lower bound on maintaining connectivity in dynamic graphs, as well as a more general trade-off between updates and queries. Our bound holds even if t...
Schemas, and more generally metadata specifying structural and semantic constraints, are invaluable in data management. They facilitate conceptual design and enable checking of da...

In this paper, we introduce a simple, randomized dynamic data structure for storing multidimensional point sets, called a quadtreap. This data structure is a randomized, balanced ...
