In a context considering in a unique framework all the relations in a database, by means of the notion of global consistency, independent database schemes allow enforcement of con...
For several reasons a database may not satisfy certain integrity constraints (ICs), for example, when it is the result of integrating several independent data sources. However, mo...
Current approaches for answering queries with imprecise constraints require users to provide distance metrics and importance measures for attributes of interest. In this paper we ...
Abstract. This paper introduces a formalization of a set of spatial semantic integrity constraints on an extended-relational database model. The formalization extends traditional n...
We study the possibility of constructing encryption schemes secure under messages that are chosen depending on the key k of the encryption scheme itself. We give the following sep...
