Nearest-neighbor queries are an important query type for commonly used feature databases. In many different application areas, e.g. sensor databases, location based services or fac...
Similarity retrieval have been widely used in many practical search applications. A similarity query model can be viewed as a logical combination of a set of similarity predicates....
The next-generation of wireless sensor platforms allows for more advanced in-network data processing. The central challenge remains energy and communication efficiency. This paper...
As the eXtensible Markup Language (XML) is about to emerge as a new standard for databases, the problem of providing solid logical grounds for XML query languages arises. For the ...
This article describes how to implement efficient memory resident path indexes for semi-structured data. Two techniques are introduced, and they are shown to be significantly fas...
In this paper, we study the problem of measuring structural similarities of large number of source schemas against a single domain schema, which is useful for enhancing the qualit...
With respect to current methods for query evaluation over XML data streams, adoption of certain types of buffering techniques is unavoidable. Under lots of circumstances, the buff...

Existing graph mining algorithms typically assume that the dataset can fit into main memory. As many large graph datasets cannot satisfy this condition, truly scalable graph minin...
Finding an appropriate data transformation between two schemas has been an important problem. In this paper, assuming that an edit script between original and updated DTDs is avai...
