Even if high-level query languages are used, query formulation may cause problems. This is notably so in case of large and complex application domains. Typical examples of these ki...

We present and analyze an algorithm for equivalent rewriting of XQuery queries using XQuery views, which is complete for a large class of XQueries featuring nested FLWR blocks, XM...
We present MiniCount, the first efficient sound and complete algorithm for finding maximally contained rewritings of conjunctive queries with count, using conjunctive views with c...
We tackle the problem of defining a well-founded semantics (WFS) for Datalog rules with existentially quantified variables in their heads and negations in their bodies. In partic...
We study the problem of answering queries over sources with limited access patterns. Given a first-order query Q, the problem is to decide whether there is an equivalent query whi...
