Queries to data warehouses often involve hundreds of complex aggregations over large volumes of data, and so it is infeasible to compute these queries by scanning the data sources ...
Query containment is a fundamental problem of databases. Given two queries q1 and q2, it asks whether the set of answers to q1 is included in the set of answers to q2 for any datab...
This work introduces novel polynomial algorithms for processing top-k queries in uncertain databases under the generally adopted model of x-relations. An x-relation consists of a n...
