Query optimization is an inherently complex problem, and validating the correctness and effectiveness of a query optimizer can be a task of comparable complexity. The overall proc...
We define general algebraic frameworks for shortest-distance problems based on the structure of semirings. We give a generic algorithm for finding single-source shortest distances...
Graphs are widely used for modeling complicated data, including chemical compounds, protein interactions, XML documents, and multimedia. Information retrieval against such data ca...

Background: High throughput technologies often require the retrieval of large data sets of sequences. Retrieval of EMBL or GenBank entries using keywords is easy using tools such ...
For many problems arising in the setting of graph querying (such as finding semantic associations in RDF graphs, exact and approximate pattern matching, sequence alignment, etc.)...
