Rewriting queries using views is a powerful technique that has applications in data integration, data warehousing and query optimization. Query rewriting in relational databases i...
Databases may not satisfy integrity constraints (ICs) for several reasons. Nevertheless, in most of the cases an important part of the data is still consistent wrt certain desired...
Abstract. Recent research has suggested that there is no general similarity measure, which can be applied on arbitrary databases without any parameterization. Hence, the optimal co...
In existing relational database systems, processing of group-by and computation of aggregate functions are always postponed until all joins are performed. In this paper, we presen...
High energy physics scientists analyze large amounts of data looking for interesting events when particles collide. These analyses are easily expressed using complex queries that ...
