In multidimensional data models intended for online analytic processing (OLAP), data are viewed as points in a multidimensional space. Each dimension has structure, described by a...
TPR-tree is a practical index structure for moving object databases. Due to the uniform distribution assumption, TPR-tree’s bulk loading algorithm (TPR) is relatively inefficie...
In a state-of-the-art XML database, an XML query is evaluated as a sequence of structural joins in which positions of data nodes are used to perform each individual structural joi...
In this paper we explore database segmentation in the context of a column-store DBMS targeted at a scientific database. We present a novel hardware- and scheme-oblivious segmentati...
Many biological information systems rely on relational database management systems (RDBMS) to manage high-throughput biological data. While keeping these data well archived, organ...
