EURO Working Group on Decision Support Systems Proceedings of the EWG-DSS / DASIG Paris-2011 Joint-Workshop on Policy Analytics and Collaborative Decision Making Paris, November 30th- December 1st, 2011
Many databases today capture both, structured and unstructured data. Making use of such hybrid data has become an important topic in research and industry. The efficient evaluation of hybrid data queries is the main topic of this thesis. Novel techniques are proposed that improve the whole processing pipeline, from indexes and query optimization to run-time processing. The contributions are evaluated in extensive experiments showing that the proposed techniques improve upon the state of the art.
The LNCS journal Transactions on Large-Scale Data and Knowledge-Centered Systems focuses on data management, knowledge discovery, and knowledge processing, which are core and hot topics in computer science. Since the 1990s, the Internet has become the main driving force behind application development in all domains. An increase in the demand for resource sharing (e.g., computing resources, services, metadata, data sources) across different sites connected through networks has led to an evolution of data- and knowledge-management systems from centralized systems to decentralized systems enabling large-scale distributed applications providing high scalability. This, the 51st issue of Transactions on Large-Scale Data and Knowledge-Centered Systems, contains five fully revised selected regular papers. Topics covered include data anonyomaly detection, schema generation, optimizing data coverage, and digital preservation with synthetic DNA.
This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of International Workshops: Polystores and other Systems for Heterogeneous Data, Poly 2018, and Data Management and Analytics for Medicine and Healthcare, DMAH 2018, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in August 2018, held in conjunction with the 44th International Conference on Very Large Data Bases, VLDB 2018. The 11 regular papers presented together with 2 invited papers and 1 abstract of a keynote talk were carefully reviewed and selected from 16 initial submissions. The Poly 2018 Workshop focus on growing a larger and more diverse research agenda around data system solutions for heterogeneous data. The DMAH 2018 Workshop aims to foster exchange of information and discussions on innovative data management and analytics technologies.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 4th International Workshop of the Initiative for the Evaluation of XML Retrieval, INEX 2005, held at Dagstuhl Castle, Germany, in November 2005. The book presents 41 revised full papers, organized in topical sections on methodology, multiple retrieval, ad-hoc retrieval, relevance feedback, natural language queries, and more heterogeneous retrieval, interactive retrieval, document mining, and multimedia retrieval.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Database Systems for Advanced Applications, DASFAA 2006, held in Singapore in April 2006. 46 revised full papers and 16 revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 188 submissions. Topics include sensor networks, subsequence matching and repeating patterns, spatial-temporal databases, data mining, XML compression and indexing, xpath query evaluation, uncertainty and streams, peer-to-peer and distributed networks and more.
Modern database systems enhance the capabilities of traditional database systems by their ability to handle any kind of data, including text, image, audio, and video. Today, databasesystemsareparticularlyrelevanttotheWeb,astheycanprovideinputtocontent generators for Web pages, and can handle queries issued over the Internet. The eXtensible Markup Language (XML) is used in applications running the gamut from content management through publishing to Web services and e-commerce. It is used as the universal communication language for exchanging music and graphics as well as purchase orders and technical documentation. As database systems increasingly talk to each other over the Web, there is a f...
It has become highly desirable to provide users with flexible ways to query/search information over databases as simple as keyword search like Google search. This book surveys the recent developments on keyword search over databases, and focuses on finding structural information among objects in a database using a set of keywords. Such structural information to be returned can be either trees or subgraphs representing how the objects, that contain the required keywords, are interconnected in a relational database or in an XML database. The structural keyword search is completely different from finding documents that contain all the user-given keywords. The former focuses on the interconnecte...
