Motivated by the need for more flexible OLAP systems, this paper presents work on logical integration of external data in OLAP databases, carried out in cooperation between the D...
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...
Integration of spatial data into multidimensional models leads to the concept of Spatial OLAP (SOLAP). Usually, SOLAP models exploit discrete spatial data. Few works integrate cont...
OLAP queries are typically heavy-weight and ad-hoc thus requiring high storage capacity and processing power. In this paper, we address this problem using a database cluster which...

Multi-Dimensional Expressions (MDX) provide an interface for asking several related OLAP queries simultaneously. An interesting problem is how to optimize the execution of an MDX q...
