Partial evaluation has recently proven an effective technique for evaluating Boolean XPath queries over a fragmented tree that is distributed over a number of sites. What left ope...
Retrieving music from large digital databases is a demanding computational task. The cost for indexing and searching depends not only on the computational effort of measuring music...
Materialized views (MV) can significantly improve the query performance of relational databases. In this paper, we consider MVs to optimize complex scenarios where many heterogen...
