Traditionally, optimizers are “programmed” to optimize queries following a set of buildin procedures. However, optimizers should be robust to its changing environment to gener...
A common requirement of many scientific applications is the ability to process queries involving expensive predicates corresponding to user programs. Optimizing such queries is ha...

d Abstract) Hanna Mazzawi Technion - Israel Institute of Technology In this paper, we consider the problem of reconstructing a hidden graph with m edges using additive queries. Gi...
This paper deals with the evaluation of acyclic Boolean conjunctive queries in relational databases. By well-known results of Yannakakis [1981], this problem is solvable in polynom...
We study the complexity of approximating the smallest eigenvalue of −∆ + q with Dirichlet boundary conditions on the d-dimensional unit cube. Here ∆ is the Laplacian, and th...
