Sequence-based XML indexing aims at avoiding expensive join operations in query processing. It transforms structured XML data into sequences so that a structured query can be answ...
Abstract. Estimating the sizes of query results, and intermediate results, is crucial to many aspects of query processing. In particular, it is necessary for effective query optimi...
The generalized hypertree width GHW(H) of a hypergraph H is a measure of its cyclicity. Classes of conjunctive queries or constraint satisfaction problems whose associated hypergr...
Spatial data warehouses (SDW) enable analytical multidimensional queries together with spatial analysis. Mainly, three operations are related to SDW query processing performance: (...
Developing cost models for query optimization is significantly harder for XML queries than for traditional relational queries. The reason is that XML query operators are much mor...
