The relational model, as proposed by Codd, contained the concept of relations as tables composed of tuples of single valued attributes taken from a domain. In most of the early lit...
Over the recent years aspect-oriented programming (AOP) has found increasing interest among researchers in software engineering. Aspects are ions which capture and localise cross-c...
To select some "valuable" views for materialization is an essential challenge in OLAP system design. Several techniques proposed previously are not very scalable for syst...
In this paper, we discuss the use of fragmented bandwidth to improve the performance of staggered striping in a multimedia system. It is observed that potential disruptions can occ...
The aim of this paper is to show a method that is able to detect a particular class of semantic inconsistencies in a rule-based system (RBS). A semantic inconsistency is defined by...
This paper describes a new benchmark for object-relational DBMSs, the Benchmark for Object-Relational Databases (BORD). BORD has been developed to evaluate system performance pecul...
