We explore the implications of supporting bags (i.e. multisets) in a data model and associated query language, and present some formal results concerned with the algebraic propert...
We extend the OLAP data model to represent data ambiguity, specifically imprecision and uncertainty, and introduce an allocation-based approach to the semantics of aggregation qu...

We present a functional model for the analysis of large volumes of detailed transactional data, accumulated over time. In our model, the data schema is an acyclic graph with a sing...
Abstract. Constraint databases that can be described by boolean combinations of polynomial inequalities over the reals have received ample research attention. In particular, the ex...
— While planning the execution of report-generation workloads, database administrators often need to know how long different query workloads will take to run. Database systems ru...
