Abstract. Constraint databases that can be described by boolean combinations of polynomial inequalities over the reals have received ample research attention. In particular, the ex...
Abstract. Long DNA sequences have to be cut using restriction enzymes into small fragments whose lengths and/or nucleotide sequences can be analyzed by currently available technolo...
Constraint Processing and Database techniques overlap significantly. We discuss here the application of a constraint satisfaction technique, called dynamic bundling, to databases....
Moving objects are currently represented in databases by means of an explicit representation of their trajectory. However from a physical point of view, or more specifically accor...
Preference queries are relational algebra or SQL queries that contain occurrences of the winnow operator (find the most preferred tuples in a given relation). We present here a nu...
