We study the problem of finding efficient equivalent viewbased rewritings of relational queries, focusing on query optimization using materialized views under the assumption that ...
The join operation, which combines tuples from multiple relations, is the most fundamental and, typically, the most expensive operation in database queries. The standard approach t...

We present in this paper an approach for XQuery optimization that exploits minimization opportunities raised in composition-style nesting of queries. More precisely, we consider t...
The current SQL standard for access control is coarse grained, in that it grants access to all rows of a table or none. Fine-grained access control, which allows control of access...
