The skyline query returns the most interesting tuples according to a set of explicitly defined preferences among attribute values. This work relaxes this requirement, and allows us...
— A paramount challenge in probabilistic databases is the scalable computation of confidences of tuples in query results. This paper introduces an efficient secondary-storage o...
Traditional science searched for new objects and phenomena that led to discoveries. Tomorrow's science will combine together the large pool of information in scientific archi...
