Query rewriting using views is an essential issue in data integration. A number of algorithms, e.g., the bucket algorithm, the inverse rules algorithm, the SVB algorithm and the M...
Abstract. With more and more electronic information sources becoming widely available, the issue of the quality of these often-competing sources has become germane. We propose a st...
We exhibit a technique for automatically verifying the safety of simple C programs working on tree-shaped data structures. We do not consider the complete behavior of programs, but...
We describe a (meta) formalism for defining a variety of (object oriented) data models in a unified framework based on a variation of first-order logic. As specific example we use...
