In previous papers we have proposed a graphical query language for expressing traversal recursions in labelled, directed graphs. A fundamental feature of the language is the use o...
We consider the well known geometric problem of determining shortest paths between pairs of points on a polyhedral surface P, where P consists of triangular faces with positive we...
The last few years, there has been an extensive body of literature in data warehousing applications that primarily focuses on basket-type (transactional) data, common in retail in...
Well-designed indices can dramatically improve query performance. Including query workload information can produce indices that yield better overall throughput while balancing the...
The interaction between recursion in XPATH and recursion in DTDs makes it challenging to answer XPATH queries on XML data that is stored in an RDBMS via schema-based shredding. We...
