We present a query language called MDatalog, which is an extension of Datalog for multimodal deductive databases. We define modal relational algebras and give the seminaive evalua...
In this paper we study the problem of deciding whether a regular path query over views in data-integration systems can be re-expressed without recursion. The problem becomes chall...
We revisit the definition of unforgeability of blind signatures as proposed by Pointcheval and Stern (Journal of Cryptology 2000). Surprisingly, we show that this established de...
Understanding query ambiguity in web search remains an important open problem. In this paper we reexamine query ambiguity by analyzing the result clickthrough data. Previously pro...
In the constraint database community, FO+poly and FO+linear have been proposed as foundations for spatial database query languages. One of the strengths of this approach is that t...
