We introduce a representation system for relational data based on algebraic factorisation using distributivity of product over union and commutativity of product and union. We giv...
Over the past several decades, the study of conjunctive queries has occupied a central place in the theory and practice of database systems. In recent years, conjunctive queries h...
Data is increasingly being bought and sold online, and Webbased marketplace services have emerged to facilitate these activities. However, current mechanisms for pricing data are ...
When transforming data one often wants certain information in the data source to be preserved, i.e., we identify parts of the source data and require these parts to be transformed...
We present Nyaya, a system for the management of Semantic-Web data which couples a general-purpose and extensible storage mechanism with efficient ontology reasoning and querying ...

Probabilistic database systems have successfully established themselves as a tool for managing uncertain data. However, much of the research in this area has focused on efficient...
We show that, although conjunctive queries over OWL 2 QL ontologies are reducible to database queries, no algorithm can construct such a reduction in polynomial time without changi...

This paper proposes an approach aimed at obviating empty answers for a family of conjunctive queries involving Boolean or fuzzy value constraints. Contrary to the approaches based ...

We consider the problem of selecting views and indexes that minimize the evaluation costs of the important queries under an upper bound on the disk space available for storing the ...

Based on practical observations on rule-based inference on RDF data, we study the problem of redundancy elimination on RDF graphs in the presence of rules (in the form of Datalog r...
