We demonstrate XRPC, a minimal XQuery extension that enables distributed querying between heterogeneous XQuery engines. The XRPC language extension enhances the existing concept o...
Materialized views (MV) can significantly improve the query performance of relational databases. In this paper, we consider MVs to optimize complex scenarios where many heterogen...
