Large search engines process thousands of queries per second over billions of documents, making query processing a major performance bottleneck. An important class of optimization...
Computer vision researchers have recently proposed several local descriptor schemes. Due to lack of database support, however, these descriptors have only been evaluated using sma...
Abstract. We study containment of conjunctive queries that are evaluated over databases that may contain tuples with null values. We assume the semantics of SQL for single block qu...
Many online or local data sources provide powerful querying mechanisms but limited ranking capabilities. For instance, PubMed allows users to submit highly expressive Boolean keywo...
