Topological relationships like overlap, inside, meet, and disjoint uniquely characterize the relative position between objects in space. For a long time, they have been a focus of...
Modern scientific applications consume massive volumes of data produced by computer simulations. Such applications require new data management capabilities in order to scale to te...
We describe the Consistency Extractor System (ConsEx) that computes consistent answers to Datalog queries with negation posed to relational databases that may be inconsistent with...
In [?], a practical algorithm for precise interval analysis is provided for which, however, no non-trivial upper complexity bound is known. Here, we present a lower bound by showin...
Managing multiple versions of XML documents represents a critical requirement for many applications. Also, there has been much recent interest in supporting complex queries on XML ...
