We propose a new ranking paradigm for relational databases called Structured Value Ranking (SVR). SVR uses structured data values to score (rank) the results of keyword search que...

We study query authentication schemes, algorithmic and cryptographic constructions that provide efficient and secure protocols for verifying the results of queries over structured...
Trees and graphs are widely used to model biological databases. Providing efficient algorithms to support tree-based or graph-based querying is therefore an important issue. In th...
A number of algorithms of clustering spatial data for reducing the number of disk seeks required to process spatial queries have been developed. One of the algorithms is the scheme...
This papers deals with multiway spatial joins when (i) there is limited time for query processing and the goal is to retrieve the best possible solutions within this limit (ii) the...
