We present an optimized query rewriting algorithm for OWL 2 QL that computes the rewriting set of a user query by avoiding unnecessary inferences and extended clause subsumption ch...
In spite of the omnipresence of parallel (multi-core) systems, the predominant strategy to evaluate window-based stream joins is still strictly sequential, mostly just straightfor...
— Multi-criteria decision support (MCDS) is crucial in many business and web applications such as web searches, B2B portals and on-line commerce. Such MCDS applications need to r...
Pervasive information systems give an overview of what digital environments should look like in the future. From a data-centric point of view, traditional databases have to be use...
The performance of parallel query processing in a cluster of index servers is crucial for modern web search systems. In such a scenario, the response time basically depends on the...
