This paper extends relational processing and optimization to the FISQL/FIRA languages for dynamic schema queries over multidatabases. Dynamic schema queries involve the creation a...
We study the representation, derivation and utilization of a special kind of constraints in multidatabase systems. A major challenge is when component database schemas are schemat...
Given a dense set of imperfect normals obtained by photometric stereo or shape from shading, this paper presents an optimization algorithm which alternately optimizes until conver...
Supporting graceful schema evolution represents an unsolved problem for traditional information systems that is further exacerbated in web information systems, such as Wikipedia a...
Intuitively, data management and data integration tools should be well-suited for exchanging information in a semantically meaningful way. Unfortunately, they suffer from two sign...
