We study query authentication schemes, algorithmic and cryptographic constructions that provide efficient and secure protocols for verifying the results of queries over structured...
We present an improved oracle for the distance sensitivity problem. The goal is to preprocess a directed graph G = (V, E) with non-negative edge weights to answer queries of the f...
Most relational query optimizers make use of information about the costs of accessing tuples and data structures on various storage devices. This information can at times be off b...
Abstract. We give a general framework for approximate query processing in semistructured databases. We focus on regular path queries, which are the integral part of most of the que...
