Results caching is an efficient technique for reducing the query processing load, hence it is commonly used in real search engines. This technique, however, bounds the maximum hit...
With recent advances in temporal and spatiotemporal databases, user demands are becoming more complex. As a result, simple queries are replaced by complex multitemporal query scen...

We consider the problem of deciding query equivalence for a conjunctive language in which queries output complex objects composed from a mixture of nested, unordered collection ty...
The spatial query has been processed in two steps, the filter step and the refinement step, due to a large volume and high complexity of the spatial data. However, this approach h...
