Many scientific applications generate massive volumes of data through observations or computer simulations, bringing up the need for effective indexing methods for efficient stora...
We propose a two-pha.se algorithm for physical database design. In phase one the algorithm, for each logical query, losesrules to determine characteristics of a physical design (s...
Many applications require that large amounts of data are deleted from the database ? typically, such bulk deletes are carried out periodically and involve old or out-of-date data....
The paper presents various transparency issues that have to be considered during development of object-oriented Grid applications based on virtual repositories. Higher-level transp...
