System developments and research on parallel query processing have concentrated either on "Shared Everything" or "Shared Nothing" architectures so far. While t...
Requirements from new types of applications call for new database system solutions. Computational science applications performing distributed computations on Grid networks with req...
A mediator system is a kind of a meta-search engine that provides a seamlessly integrated search service for diverse search engines (collections). Since collections of a mediator ...
This paper argues that most queries in object-oriented databases require traversing from one object to another in the aggregation hierarchy. Thus, the connections between objects ...
The emergence of location-aware services calls for new real-time spatio-temporal query processing algorithms that deal with large numbers of mobile objects and queries. In this de...
