Advanced database systems face a great challenge raised by the emergence of massive, complex structural data in bioinformatics, chem-informatics, and many other applications. The ...
We present a query architecture in which join operators are decomposed into their constituent data structures (State Modules, or SteMs), and dataflow among these SteMs is managed ...

The assessment of chemical similarity between molecules is a basic operation in chemoinformatics, a computational area concerning with the manipulation of chemical structural info...
The data structures suitable for indexing of large spatial objects in databases are considered. Some generalizations of existing tree methods concerned approximation of spatial ob...
XML databases often contain documents comprising structured text. Therefore, it is important to integrate "information retrieval style" query evaluation, which is well-s...
