Recently, a parametric State Reward Markov Model SRMM p has been developed for the reliability and availability analysis of self-healing SONET mesh networks 2 . In this paper, w...
The novel context of accessing and querying large data repositories through ontologies that are formalized in terms of expressive DLs requires on the one hand to consider query an...
Abstract-- Current twig join algorithms incur high memory costs on queries that involve child-axis nodes. In this paper we provide an analytical explanation for this phenomenon. In...
Kolaitis and Vardi pointed out that constraint satisfaction and conjunctive query containment are essentially the same problem. We study the Boolean conjunctive queries under a mor...

Decision-support applications generate queries with complex predicates. We show how the factorization of complex query expressions exposes significant opportunities for exploiting...
