For a DBMS that provides support for a declarative query language like SQL, the query optimizer is a crucial piece of software. The declarative nature of a query allows it to be translated into many equivalent evaluation plans. The process of choosing a suitable plan from all alternatives is known as query optimization. The basis of this choice are a cost model and statistics over the data. Essential for the costs of a plan is the execution order of join operations in ist operator tree, since the runtime of plans with different join orders can vary by several orders of magnitude. An exhaustive search for an optimal solution over all possible operator trees is computationally infeasible. To d...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second VLDB 2005 International Workshop on Secure Data Management, SDM 2005, held in Trondheim, Norway in August/September 2005 in conjunction with VLDB 2005. The 16 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 38 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on encrypted data access, access control, information disclosure control in databases, privacy and security support for distributed applications, and with a special focus on security and privacy in healthcare.
This book constitutes the joint refereed proceedings of the 20th Symposium on the Integration of Symbolic Computation and Mechanized Reasoning, Calculemus 2013, 6th International Workshop on Digital Mathematics Libraries, DML 2013, Systems and Projects, held in Bath, UK as part of CICM 2013, the Conferences on Intelligent Computer Mathematics.

In the 1980s, traditional Business Intelligence (BI) systems focused on the delivery of reports that describe the state of business activities in the past, such as for questions like "How did our sales perform during the last quarter?" A decade later, there was a shift to more interactive content that presented how the business was performing at the present time, answering questions like "How are we doing right now?" Today the focus of BI users are looking into the future. "Given what I did before and how I am currently doing this quarter, how will I do next quarter?" Furthermore, fuelled by the demands of Big Data, BI systems are going through a time of incredible change. Predictive analyti...
Information Organization and Databases: Foundations of Data Organization provides recent developments of information organization technologies that have become crucial not only for data mining applications and information visualization, but also for treatment of semistructured data, spatio-temporal data and multimedia data that are not necessarily stored in conventional DBMSs. Information Organization and Databases: Foundations of Data Organization presents: semistructured data addressing XML, query languages and integrity constraints, focusing on advanced technologies for organizing web data for effective retrieval; multimedia database organization emphasizing video data organization and da...
When models of a system change, analyses based on them have to be reevaluated in order for the results to stay meaningful. In many cases, the time to get updated analysis results is critical. This thesis proposes multiple, combinable approaches and a new formalism based on category theory for implicitly incremental model analyses and transformations. The advantages of the implementation are validated using seven case studies, partially drawn from the Transformation Tool Contest (TTC).
