We develop a data integration approach for the efficient evaluation of queries over autonomous source databases. The approach is based on some novel applications and extensions of...
We develop a new schema for unstructured data. Traditional schemas resemble the type systems of programming languages. For unstructured data, however, the underlying type may be mu...

We present an update on the status of the Cougar Sensor Database Project, in which we are investigating a database approach to sensor networks: Clients "program" the sen...

We study highly expressive query languages such as datalog, fixpoint, and while-languages on probabilistic databases. We generalize these languages such that computation steps (e....
The heterogeneity of architectural constraint languages makes difficult the transformation of architectural constraints throughout the development process. Indeed they have signiï...
