This paper is a critical analysis of the concept of ontology thus as it is used in computing science. It identifies three main problems with such a concept, two of which are intri...
The wavelet decomposition is a proven tool for constructing concise synopses of massive data sets and rapid changing data streams, which can be used to obtain fast approximate, wit...
Scientific workflows facilitate automation, reuse, and reproducibility of scientific data management and analysis tasks. Scientific workflows are often modeled as dataflow networks...
For several reasons a database may not satisfy a given set of integrity constraints (ICs), but most likely most of the information in it is still consistent with those ICs; and cou...
Abstract. We discuss, compare and relate some old and some new models for incomplete and probabilistic databases. We characterize the expressive power of c-tables over infinite dom...
