In this paper, we motivate the need for and challenges involved in supporting imprecise queries over Web databases. Then we briefly explain our solution, AIMQ - a domain independe...
In this paper we address the problem of minimizing the response time of a multi-way join query using pipelined (inter-operator) parallelism, in a parallel or a distributed environ...
We describe set-oriented algorithms for mining association rules. Such algorithms imply performing multiple joins and may appear to be inherently less escient than special-purpose...
Query processing in database systems has developed beyond mere exact matching of attribute values. Scoring database objects and retrieving only the top k matches or Pareto-optimal...
We study the problem of answering spatial queries in databases where objects exist with some uncertainty and they are associated with an existential probability. The goal of a thre...
