In this paper we study the problem of deciding whether a regular path query over views in data-integration systems can be re-expressed without recursion. The problem becomes chall...
Abstract. Nested words are a restriction of the class of visibly pushdown languages that provide a natural model of runs of programs with recursive procedure calls. The usual conne...
Quotients and factors are important notions in the design of various computational procedures for regular languages and for the analysis of their logical properties. We propose a n...
We address aggregate queries over GIS data and moving object data, where non-spatial information is stored in a data warehouse. We propose a formal data model and query language t...
Due to their expressive power, Regular Expressions (REs) are quickly becoming an integral part of language specifications for several important application scenarios. Many of thes...
