The Fittest Survives: An Adaptive Approach to Query Optimization
Traditionally, optimizers are “programmed” to optimize queries following a set of buildin procedures. However, optimizers should be robust to its changing environment to gener...

Cherry Picking: A Semantic Query Processing Strategy for the Evaluation of Expensive Predicates
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...

The Complexity of Acyclic Conjunctive Queries
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...

On the complexity of the multivariate Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem
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...
