We present a distributed index data structure and algorithms devised to support parallel query processing of multimedia content in search engines. We present a comparative study wi...
String data is ubiquitous, and its management has taken on particular importance in the past few years. Approximate queries are very important on string data especially for more c...
We demonstrate XRPC, a minimal XQuery extension that enables distributed querying between heterogeneous XQuery engines. The XRPC language extension enhances the existing concept o...
Materialized views (MV) can significantly improve the query performance of relational databases. In this paper, we consider MVs to optimize complex scenarios where many heterogen...
