Approximate Frequency Counts over Data Streams
We present algorithms for computing frequency counts exceeding a user-specified threshold over data streams. Our algorithms are simple and have provably small memory footprints. A...

Exact and Approximate Aggregation in Constraint Query
We investigate the problem of how to extend constraint query languages with aggregate operators. We deal with standard relational aggregation, and also with aggregates speci c to ...

Unbiased estimation of size and other aggregates over hidden web databases
Many websites provide restrictive form-like interfaces which allow users to execute search queries on the underlying hidden databases. In this paper, we consider the problem of es...

Filtering with Approximate Predicates
Approximate predicates can be used to reduce the number of comparisons made by expensive, complex predicates. For example, to check if a point is within a region (expensive predic...

Algorithms for the Database Layout Problem
We present a formal analysis of the database layout problem, i.e., the problem of determining how database objects such as tables and indexes are assigned to disk drives. Optimizin...
