We investigate the complexity of earliest query answering for n-ary node selection queries defined by streaming tree automata (STAs). We elaborate an algorithm that selects query ...
The ODMG proposal has helped to focus the work on object-oriented databases (OODBs) onto a common object model and query language. Nevertheless there are several shortcomings of t...
During the last years, significant attention has been paid to the problem of building wrappers for extracting data from semistructured web sources. Nevertheless, since web sources...
We present a flexible query allocation framework, called Satisfaction-based Query Allocation (SbQA for short), for distributed information systems where both consumers and provider...
In many applications, we need to analyze a large number of time series. Segments of time series demonstrating dominating advantages over others are often of particular interest. In...
