OGSA-DQP is a Distributed Query Processing system for the Grid. It uses the OGSA-DAI framework for querying individual databases and adds on top of it an infrastructure to perform ...
Traditionally, optimizers are “programmed” to optimize queries following a set of buildin procedures. However, optimizers should be robust to its changing environment to gener...
Abstract. Fuzzy Description Logics (f-DLs) have been proposed as formalisms capable of capturing and reasoning about imprecise and vague knowledge. The last years, research in Desc...
