Abstract. Fine-grained lock protocols should allow for highly concurrent transaction processing on XML document trees, which is addressed by the taDOM lock protocol family enabling...
A key observation is that the invariants in database management determine the mapping steps of the supporting architecture. Referring to the multi-layered architecture of record-or...
XML structural joins, which evaluate the containment (ancestor-descendant) relationships between XML elements, are important operations of XML query processing. Estimating structu...
XML and semi-structured data is usually modeled using graph structures. Structural summaries, which have been proposed to speedup XML query processing have graph forms as well. Th...
Armstrong databases are a popular tool in example-based database design. An Armstrong database for a given constraint set from a fixed constraint class Z satisfies precisely those ...
