In this paper we present a volume data model amenable to querying volumes in databases. Unlike most existing volume models, which are directed towards specific applications (notab...
This paper describes an algebra for use with parallel object databases, and in particular ODMG compliant databases with OQL. Although there have been many proposals for parallel r...

Currently the key problems of query optimization are extensibility imposed by object-relational technology, as well as query complexity caused by forthcoming applications, such as...
Abstract. Bottom-up evaluation is a central part of query evaluation / program execution in deductive databases. It is used after a source code optimization like magic sets or SLDm...
An algorithm is presented to answer window queries in a quadtree-based spatial database environment by retrieving the covering blocks in the underlying spatial database. It works ...
