XML data is often modeled as node-labeled trees. In a structure-generic relational storage scheme, the structure of the XML data is shredded into pieces of a generic type, such as...
Many data objects in the real world have attributes about location and time. Such spatiotemporal objects can be found in applications such Geographic Information Systems (GIS), env...
We propose a distributed data structure for maintaining spatial data sets on message-passing, distributed memory machines. The data structure is based on orthogonal bisection tree...
A number of researchers have become interested in the design of global-scale networked systems and applications. Our thesis here is that the database community's principles a...
Modern database applications like geographic information systems, multimedia databases, and digital libraries dealing with huge volumes of high dimensional data, make use of multi...
