Currently, only few XML data management systems support concurrent access to an XML document, and if they do, they typically apply variations of hierarchical locking to handle XML...
Given a multidimensional point q, a reverse k nearest neighbor (RkNN) query retrieves all the data points that have q as one of their k nearest neighbors. Existing methods for proc...
As the XML has become a standard for data representation, it is inevitable to propose and implement techniques for efficient managing of XML data. A natural alternative is to expl...
Whereas traditional databases manage only deterministic information, many applications that use databases involve uncertain data. This paper presents a Probabilistic Tree Data Bas...
Most operations of the relational algebra or SQL - like projection with duplicate elimination, join, ordering, group by and aggregations - are efficiently processed using a sorted...
