In this paper we study the expressive power of query languages for nested bags. We de ne the ambient bag language by generalizing the constructs of the relational language of Brea...
Complex queries often contain common or similar subexpressions, either within a single query or among multiple queries submitted as a batch. If so, query execution time can be imp...

We present an algorithm for mining tree-shaped patterns in a large graph. Novel about our class of patterns is that they can contain constants, and can contain existential nodes w...
In this work, we present a semantic query optimization technique to improve the efficiency of the evaluation of a subset of SQL:1999 recursive queries. Using datalog notation, we c...
We study the problem of finding efficient equivalent viewbased rewritings of relational queries, focusing on query optimization using materialized views under the assumption that ...
