In implementations of non-standard database systems, large objects are often embedded within an aggregate of different types, i.e. a tuple. For a given size and access probabilit...
Existing datacube precompuatation schemes materialize selected datacube tuples on disk, choosing the most beneficial cuboids (i.e., combinations of dimensions) to materialize giv...
The problem of query containment is fundamental to many aspects of database systems, including query optimization, determining independence of queries from updates, and rewriting ...
High dimensional data has always been a challenge for clustering algorithms because of the inherent sparsity of the points. Recent research results indicate that in high dimension...
Advanced object-oriented applications require the management of schema versions, in order to cope with changes in the structure of the stored data. Two types of versioning have be...
