Abstract. Algorithms for processing Structural Joins embody essential building blocks for XML query evaluation. Their design is a difficult task, because they have to satisfy many ...
With our participation in TREC2004, we test Terrier, a modular and scalable Information Retrieval framework, in three tracks. For the mixed query task of the Web track, we employ ...
The Ambient Logic is a modal logic proposed to describe the structural and computational properties of distributed and mobile computations. The static part of the Ambient Logic is,...
Consistent query answering is the problem of characterizing and computing the semantically correct answers to queries from a database that may not satisfy certain integrity constr...
