Although the presence of a schema enables many optimizations for operations on XML documents, recent studies have shown that many XML documents in practice either do not refer to ...
Current skyline evaluation techniques follow a common paradigm that eliminates data elements from skyline consideration by finding other elements in the dataset that dominate them...

The performance of XML database queries can be greatly enhanced by rewriting them using materialized views. We study the problem of rewriting a query using materialized views, whe...
Snapshot isolation (SI) provides significantly improved concurrency over 2PL, allowing reads to be non-blocking. Unfortunately, it can also lead to non-serializable executions in ...

Views over probabilistic data contain correlations between tuples, and the current approach is to capture these correlations using explicit lineage. In this paper we propose an al...
Existing work on similar sequence matching has focused on either whole matching or range subsequence matching. In this paper, we present novel methods for ranked subsequence match...
We present XBenchMatch, a benchmark which uses as input the result of a schema matching algorithm (set of mappings and/or an integrated schema) and generates statistics about the ...
Correctly generating a structured query (e.g., an XQuery or a SQL query) requires the user to have a full understanding of the database schema, which can be a daunting task. Alter...
As computer systems are essential components of many critical commercial services, the need for secure online transactions is now becoming evident. The demand for such application...
