Uncertain data are inherent in some important applications. Although a considerable amount of research has been dedicated to modeling uncertain data and answering some types of qu...
Statistical summaries in relational databases mainly focus on the distribution of data values and have been found useful for various applications, such as query evaluation and data...
This paper studies the problem of evaluating continuous multi-way joins on top of Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs). We present a novel algorithm, called recursive join (RJoin), that...
We revisit the classical chase procedure, studying its properties as well as its applicability to standard database problems. We settle (in the negative) the open problem of decid...
Let H be a fixed directed graph on h vertices, let G be a directed graph on n vertices and suppose that at least n2 edges have to be deleted from it to make it H-free. We show tha...
