Though skyline queries already have claimed their place in retrieval over central databases, their application in Web information systems up to now was impossible due to the distri...
Skyline queries have gained much attention as alternative query semantics with pros (e.g.low query formulation overhead) and cons (e.g.large control over result size). To overcome ...
Peer Data Management Systems (PDMS) are a natural extension of heterogeneous database systems. One of the main tasks in such systems is efficient query processing. Insisting on co...
Skyline queries compute the set of Pareto-optimal tuples in a relation, i.e., those tuples that are not dominated by any other tuple in the same relation. Although several algorit...
Reverse skyline queries over uncertain databases have many important applications such as sensor data monitoring and business planning. Due to the existence of uncertainty in many...
