We study XML stream-specific schema-based optimization. We assume a widely-adopted automata-based execution model for XQuery evaluation. Criteria are established regarding what s...
: We explore the complex problem of providing searching services across interoperable heterogeneous federated digital library systems with rich structure and content. We discuss sy...
Scheduling query execution plans is an important component of query optimization in parallel database systems. The problem is particularly complex in a shared-nothing execution en...
The probabilistic threshold query (PTQ) is one of the most common queries in uncertain databases, where all results satisfying the query with probabilities that meet the threshold...
In the RETSINA multi-agent system, each agent is provided with an internal planning component—the RETSINA planner. Each agent, using its internal planner, formulates detailed pla...
