A novel framework for providing probabilistically-bounded approximate answers to non-holistic aggregate range queries in OLAP is presented in this paper. Such a framework allows u...
In this paper, we introduce preferential regular path queries. These are regular path queries whose symbols are annotated with preference weights for "scaling" up or down...
Theory, algorithms, techniques and tools for producing a generalisation of a map have long been available. In this paper we study the inverse problem, namely, given two maps L and...
The range nearest-neighbor (NN) query is an important query type in location-based services, as it can be applied to the case that an NN query has a spatial region, instead of a lo...

Hypothetical queries are queries embedding hypotheses about the database. The embedded hypothesis in a hypothetical query indicates, so to say, a state of the database intended for...
