Querying document-centric XML collections with structure conditions improves retrieval precisions. The structures of such XML collections, however, are often too complex for users...
This paper considers a multi-query optimization issue for distributed similarity query processing, which attempts to exploit the dependencies in the derivation of a query evaluati...
Given a set of Datalog rules, facts, and a query, answers to the query can be inferred bottom-up starting with the facts or top-down starting with the query. For efficiently answe...
Abstract: Optimization of nested queries, in particular finding equivalent “flattened” queries for queries that employ the SQL sub-query construct, has been researched extensiv...
For complex data mining queries, query optimization issues arise, similar to those for the traditional database queries. However, few works have applied the cost-based query optim...
