This paper presents flexible protocols for dynamic database design and reconfiguration, enabling mobile database to be designed in such a way that data location, replication and e...
Automatic physical database design tools rely on "what-if" interfaces to the query optimizer to estimate the execution time of the training query workload under differen...
The aim of this paper is to introduce a new method for finding and reusing process equipment design and inherently safer process configurations by case-based reasoning (CBR) and ob...
In-network sensor query processing systems (ISQPs), or sensor databases, have been developed to acquire, process and aggregate data from wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Because W...
We present details of a goal-oriented process for database requirements analysis. This process consists of a number of steps, spanning the spectrum from high-level stakeholder goa...
