Scheduling Transactions with Temporal Constraints: Exploiting Data Semantics
In this paper, issues involved in the design of a real-time database which maintains data temporal consistency are discussed....
View Integration: A Step Forward in Solving Structural Conflicts
Thanks to the development of the federated systems approach on the one hand and the emphasis on user involvement...
Shape Sensitive Geometric Monitoring
An important problem in distributed, dynamic databases is to continuously monitor the value of a function defined on the...
OVID: Design and Implementation of a Video-Object Database System
This paper describes a videoobject data model and the design and implementation of our pmtotype videoobject database system named...
Object-Oriented Query Languages: The Notion and the Issues
Query languages are an important component of any data management system. Therefore, recent object-oriented DBMS’s provide (or plan to...
Finite satisfiability of integrity constraints in object-oriented database schemas
Checking satisfiability of database constraints is a fundamental problem in database design. In addition, database constraints have to be...
Function Materialization in Object Bases: Design, Realization, and Evaluation
View materialization is a well-known optimization technique of relational database systems. In this work, we present a similar, yet...
Justification for Inclusion Dependency Normal Form
Functional dependencies (FDs) and inclusion dependencies (INDs) are the most fundamental integrity constraints that arise in practice in relational...
Main Memory Oriented Optimization of 00 Queries Using Typed Datalog with Foreign Predicates
Object-oriented DBMS’s (OODB’s) have created a demand for relationally complete, extensible, and declarative object-oriented (00) query languages. Until now,...
A Normalization Framework for Multimedia Databases
We present a normalization framework for the design of multimedia database schemas with reduced manipulation anomalies. To this end,...
