In this paper we consider the problem of answering queries using views, with or without ontological constraints, which is important for data integration, query optimization, and d...
In an object-relational database management system, a query optimizer requires users to provide cost models of userdefined functions. The traditional approach is analytical, that...
Our analysis of many real-world event based applications has revealed that existing Complex Event Processing technology (CEP), while effective for efficient pattern matching on e...

Probabilistic models have recently been utilized for the optimization of large combinatorial search problems. However, complex probabilistic models that attempt to capture interpa...
Skyline queries are well suited when retrieving data according to multiple criteria. While most previous work has assumed a centralized setting this paper considers skyline queryi...
