Large search engines process thousands of queries per second over billions of documents, making query processing a major performance bottleneck. An important class of optimization...
Abstract. A classical problem in query optimization is to find the optimal ordering of a set of possibly correlated selections. We provide an ion of this problem as a generalizati...
Emerging database application domains demand not only new functionality but also high performance. To satisfy these two requirements, the Volcano project provides efficient, exten...
As XQuery nears standardization, more sophisticated XQuery applications are emerging, which often exploit the entire language and are applied to non-trivial XML sources. We propos...
In this paper, we introduce a rotating interrogation technique for sensor networks called Whirlpool. Whirlpool provides opportunities to optimize data delivery in time-critical mo...
