QUEST: QUery-driven Exploration of Semistructured Data with ConflicTs and Partial Knowledge
An important reality when integrating scientific data is the fact that data may often be "missing", partially specified, or conflicting. Therefore, in this paper, we pre...

Querying Composite Objects in Semistructured Data
In this paper, we propose an entity-based style of queries for semistructured data. First, we partition a semistructured data into subgraphs corresponding to real-world entities, ...

Enhanced Regular Path Queries on Semistructured Databases
Regular path queries are the basic navigational component of virtually all the mechanisms for querying semistructured data commonly found in information integration applications, W...

Incremental Maintenance for Materialized Views over Semistructured Data
Semistructured data is not strictly typed like relational or object-oriented data and may be irregular or incomplete. It often arises in practice, e.g., when heterogeneous data so...

Union Types for Semistructured Data
Semistructured databases are treated as dynamically typed: they come equipped with no independent schema or type system to constrain the data. Query languages that are designed fo...

A Fast Index for Semistructured Data
Queries navigate semistructured data via path expressions, and can be accelerated using an index. Our solution encodes paths as strings, and inserts those strings into a special i...
