Databases are often incomplete because of the presence of disjunctive information, due to con icts, partial knowledge and other reasons. Queries against such databases often ask q...
Default Logic and Logic Programming with stable model semantics are recognized as powerful frameworks for incomplete information representation. Their expressive power are suitabl...
Answering queries over an incomplete database w.r.t. a set of constraints is an important computational task with applications in fields as diverse as information integration and ...
We show that relational algebra calculations for incomplete databases, probabilistic databases, bag semantics and whyprovenance are particular cases of the same general algorithms...
Correctly generating a structured query (e.g., an XQuery or a SQL query) requires the user to have a full understanding of the database schema, which can be a daunting task. Alter...
