Relational query optimizers have traditionally relied upon table cardinalities when estimating the cost of the query plans they consider. While this approach has been and continue...
In order to cope efficiently with simple or complex queries as well as different application requirements (e.g., ad-hoc versus repetitive queries), a query optimizer ought to supp...
All the languages for querying semistructured data and the web use as an integral part regular expressions. Based on practical observations, finding the paths that satisfy those r...
abstraction for modeling these problems is to view the Web as a collection of (usually small and heterogeneous) databases, and to view programs that extract and process Web data au...
We are developing an object-oriented real-time database system that includes a relationally complete query language. Unlike conventional query optimizers, our optimizer estimates ...
