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...
We define a framework for static optimization of sliding window conjunctive queries over infinite streams. When computational resources are sufficient, we propose that the goal of...
Abstract. The term Deep Web (sometimes also called Hidden Web) refers to the data content that is created dynamically as the result of a specific search on the Web. In this respec...
The emergence of database languages with side effects, notably for XML, raises significant challenges for database compilers and optimizers. In this paper, we extend an algebra fo...
Previous research into the efficiency of text retrieval systems has dealt primarily with methods that consider inverted lists in sequence; these methods are known as term-at-a-tim...
