Recent results in the foundations of probability theory indicate that a conditional probability can be viewed as a probability attached to a mathematical entity called a measure-f...
We introduce a general framework that is based on distance semantics and investigate the main properties of the entailment relations that it induces. It is shown that such entailm...
Abstract. We present a general discussion of what constitutes a marketoriented approach to optimization. We demonstrate how a general framework can be used to conceptually improve ...
In this paper, we present a locking-based concurrency control scheme for object-oriented databases (OODBs). Our scheme deals with class hierarchy which is an important property in...
