Due to its considerable ease of use, relational keyword search (R-KWS) has become increasingly popular. Its simplicity, however, comes at the cost of intensive query processing. Sp...
In this paper, we study the maintenance of role-based access control (RBAC) models in database environments using transitive closure relations. In particular, the algorithms that ...
Computing shortest paths between two given nodes is a fundamental operation over graphs, but known to be nontrivial over large disk-resident instances of graph data. While a numbe...
