Abstract. Kernelizations are an important tool in designing fixed parameter algorithms for parameterized decision problems. We introduce an analogous notion for counting problems,...
Spatial joins are fundamental in spatial databases. Over the last decade, the primary focus of research has been on joins with the predicate “region intersection.” In modern da...
Relational data exchange deals with translating a relational database instance over some source schema into a relational database instance over some target schema, according to a ...
This paper addresses the problem of allocating (assigning and scheduling) periodic task modules to processing nodes in distributed real-time systems subject to task precedence and ...
Multi-valued dependencies (MVDs) are an important class of constraints that is fundamental for relational database design. Although modern applications increasingly require the su...
