Both semantic and type-based query optimization rely on the idea that queries often exhibit non-trivial rewritings if the state space of the database is restricted. Despite their ...

Virtual views are a mechanism that facilitates re-use and makes queries easier to express. However the use of iterative view definitions makes very simple query evaluation and an...
Abstract. We are interested in the theoretical foundations of the optimization of conjunctive regular path queries (CRPQs). The basic problem here is deciding query containment bot...
The problems of query containment, equivalence, and minimization are recognized as very important in the context of query processing, specifically of query optimization. In their...
Query containment is the most fundamental relationship between a pair of database queries: a query Q is said to be contained in a query Q if the answer for Q is always a subset of...
