Polaris: A System for Query, Analysis and Visualization of Multi-Dimensional Relational Databases

In the last several years, large multi-dimensional databases have become common in a variety of applications such as data warehousing and scientific computing. Analysis and exploration tasks place significant demands on the interfaces to these databases. Because of the size of the data sets, dense graphical representations are more effective for exploration than spreadsheets and charts. Further...

Relational Databases Query Optimization using Hybrid Evolutionary Algorithm

Optimizing the database queries is one of hard research problems. Exhaustive search techniques like dynamic programming is suitable for queries with a few relations, but by increasing the number of relations in query, much use of memory and processing is needed, and the use of these methods is not suitable, so we have to use random and evolutionary methods. The use of evolutionary methods, beca...

SQL4X: A Flexible Query Language for XML and Relational Databases

SQL4X, a powerful language for simultaneously querying both relational and XML databases is presented. Using SQL4X, one can create both relations and XML documents as query results. Thus, SQL4X can be thought of as an integration language. In order to allow easy integration of XML documents with varied structures, SQL4X uses flexible semantics when querying XML. SQL4X is also a powerful query l...
