This paper uses a knowledge-based approach to querying heterogeneous spatial databases based on an ontology and conceptual and attribute similarities. The ontology, which may be in...
In recent years, large amount of data modeled by graphs, namely graph data, have been collected in various domains. Efficiently processing queries on graph databases has attracted...
Abstract. We study here fundamental issues involved in top-k query evaluation in probabilistic databases. We consider simple probabilistic databases in which probabilities are asso...
Abstract. Repairing a database means bringing the database in accordance with a given set of integrity constraints by applying modifications that are as small as possible. In the ...
Semistructured graph-based databases have been proposed as well-suited stores for World-Wide Web data. Yet so far, languages for querying such data are too complex for casual Web ...
