We address skyline and top-k processing in web interaction scenarios. We model the problem space based on game theory principles and present new algorithms and heuristics to reali...
Ordinary people have access to unprecedented volumes of information today. Researchers in the fields of information management (IM) and human-computer interaction (HCI) are reacti...
The suitability of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) approaches for fulltext web retrieval has recently been questioned because of the claimed unacceptable bandwidth consumption induced by retri...

Most of the existing work on skyline query has been extensively used in decision support, recommending systems etc, and mainly focuses on the efficiency issue for a single table. ...
The popularity of XML has motivated the development of novel XML processing tools many of which embed the XPath language for XML querying, transformation, constraint specification...

Basic message processing tasks, such as wellformedness checking and grammar validation, can be off-loaded from the service providers' own infrastructures. To enable effective...
In this demo we present X-Time, a prototype for managing schema versioning in relational data warehouses, specifically oriented to support the formulation of crossversion queries,...
