We consider the containment problem for conjunctive queries with atomic negation. Firstly, we refine an existing algorithm based on homomorphism checks, which itself improves other...
Recent advances in research fields like multimedia and bioinformatics have brought about a new generation of hyper-dimensional databases which can contain hundreds or even thousan...

SQL injection attacks potentially affect all applications, especially web applications, that utilize a database backend. While these attacks are generally against the application...
We consider two-dimensional spatial databases defined in terms of polynomial inequalities and investigate the expressibility of the topological connectivity query for these databa...
This paper introduces an improved evolutionary algorithm based on the Imperialist Competitive Algorithm (ICA), called Quad Countries Algorithm (QCA). The Imperialist Competitive Al...
