In this paper we consider general path constraints for semistructured databases. Our general constraints do not suffer from the limitations of the path constraints previously stud...
Virtual views are a mechanism that facilitates re-use and makes queries easier to express. However the use of iterative view definitions makes very simple query evaluation and an...
We address the problem of query rewriting for TSL, a language for querying semistructured data. We develop and present an algorithm that, given a semistructured query q and a set ...
The prevalent use of XML highlights the need for a generic, flexible access-control mechanism for XML documents that supports efficient and secure query access, without revealing ...
When transforming data one often wants certain information in the data source to be preserved, i.e., we identify parts of the source data and require these parts to be transformed...
