This paper presents an innovative partitionbased time join strategy for temporal databases where time is represented by time intervals. The proposed method maps time intervals to ...
Most real-world database applications manage temporal data, i.e., data with associated time references that capture a temporal aspect of the data, typically either when the data i...
Disk I/O is a major bottleneck for query processing in database applications. This bottleneck is especially a problem for temporal databases because of their large size. Reduction...
This paper describes ProSQL, a novel prototyping tool to support the development of extensions to SQL. ProSQL provides a simple way to prototype the features of a proposed extensio...
This paper contributes a general approach to characterizing patterns of change in a spatio-temporal database. While there is a particular interest in modelling and querying how sp...
