Reformulating Query Plans for Multidatabase Systems
Authors: Chun-Nan Hsu, Craig A. Knoblock
Venue: CIKM
Year: 1993

A practical heterogeneous, distributed multidatabase system must answer queries efficiently. Conventional query optimization techniques are not adequate here because these techniques are dependent on the database structure, and rely on limited information which is not sufficient in complicated multidatabase queries. This paper presents an automated approach to reformulating query plans to improve the efficiency of multidatabase queries. This approach uses database abstractions, the knowledge about the contents of databases, to reformulate a query plan into less expensive but semantically equivalent one. We present two algorithms. The first algorithm reformulates subqueries to individual databases, the second algorithm extends the first one and reformulates the entire query plan. Empirical results show that the reformulations can provide significant savings with minimal overhead. The reformulation approach provides a global reduction in the amount of the intermediate data as well as loc...

Genetic Algorithms for Modelling, Design, and Process Control
Authors: Charles L. Karr
Venue: CIKM
Year: 1993

Genetic algorithms (GAs) are becoming increasingly popular as tools for solving search, optimization, and machine learning problems. The true strength of these search techniques lies in their ability to perform impressively across a broad spectrum of problems; they are robust. From system modelling to engineering design to process control, GAs have been used effectively to solve problems that have given more conventional search schemes considerable difficulty. This paper provides an overview of three projects involving GAs that have recently been completed by researchers at the U.S. Bureau of Mines, Tuscaloosa Research Center. The three projects are: (1) using a GA to solve a modelling problem using the Ree-Eyring equation, (2) designing a piece of separation equipment an air injected hydrocyclone, with a GA, and (3) tuning a fizzy logic controller with a GA. These three applications provide an indication of the potential of GAs, and represent "state-of-the-art" of GA use in the minerals industry.
Model-driven Hypermedia Access to Weather Information
Authors: Stephan M. Kerpedjiev
Venue: CIKM
Year: 1993

: A framework is presented for hypermedia access to weather information originating from gridded data sets. The information is presented on different media (map, text, graph, table, image), depending on what aspect is emphasized. The user navigates by selecting an element that is already displayed, and a new product is generated that provides additional details about the selected element. The contents of a product is represented by a description, which is an organized chunk of assertions. Each assertion provides a single weather characteristic to a given region and time period. Three knowledge bases (weather, territory, and time models) define the objects participating in the assertions and drive the generation. Keywords: hypermedia, domain modeling, media modeling, assertional systems, applications 1. Introduction We are in the era of numerical weather analysis and forecasting. Advanced data sets are generated with high temporal and spatial resolution. However, these data sets canno...

A Hypothesis Refinement Method for Summary Discovery in Databases
Authors: Doheon Lee, Myoung-Ho Kim
Venue: CIKM
Year: 1993

As database systems are playing major roles in more and more applications, the amount of information in databases is rapidly growing. In order to comprehend those large volumes of information, computerized summary discovery methods are required. In this paper, we propose a hypothesis refinement method for constructing and evaluating fuzzy hypotheses. Breed on them we propose an effective and robust algorithm to discover simple linguistic summaries. In addition, we present ideas for exploiting discovered summaries to various applications such as querying database knowledge, handling query failures and semantic query optimization.
An Information Model for Human Genome Map Representation and Assembly
Authors: Amy J. Lee, Elke A. Rundensteiner, Spencer Thomas, Stéphane Lafortune
Venue: CIKM
Year: 1993

In this paper, we focus on some of the scientific data management problems faced by the Human Genome Project. In particular, we describe the design of an information model for the physical contig map assembly task. First, we present an object-oriented data schema that captures genomic data and their relationships required for this task, including the raw experimental data and the derived data gotten through analysis. Our genome object representation efficiently supports the maintenance of unordered, partially ordered, and completely ordered sets of data based on an overlap refinement hierarchy of interval relationships. We describe operators we have developed to automate analysis steps currently performed manually by the scientists. Examples are operators for inverting local orientation frames, for combining information in different frames into another more informative one, and for inferring additional overlap information using transitivity rules. In conclusion, we provide a walk-through example that demonstrates how our approach can be used to effectively support some of the experiments currently performed by the scientists at the Michigan Human Genome Center. “The authors are mateful to aclmowled~e Dartizd financial sum port from the NIH ;der grant NIH #PM”H&0208-03.

Adjusting the Performance of an Information Retrieval System
Authors: Jian-Yun Nie, François Paradis, Jean G. Vaucher
Venue: CIKM
Year: 1993

Users of a given information retrieval system may have different requirements at various times (sometimes emphasizing precision, sometimes recall), and the corpus may have different degree of emphasis regarding subjects. Therefore, a general purpose system should have parameters to allow adjustable performance. This article investigates the integration of several evaluation methods into a single system so that a user may choose an appropriate method or a combination of methods for his query evaluation.
Browsing and Querying in Object-Oriented Database
Authors: Juliano Lopes de Oliveira, Ricardo de Oliveira Anido
Venue: CIKM
Year: 1993

We present a new interface for Object-Oriented Database Management Systems (OODBMSs). The GOODIES 1 system combines and expands the functions of many existing interface systems, introducing some new concepts for improved browsing in an OODBMS. The implementation of GOODIES proposes a new approach to database interfaces development: instead of being strongly dependent of the underlying DBMS, GOODIES is based on the main features of the object-oriented data model. The system design is based on an internal model and on an external model. The internal model defines the relationships that bind the interface to the DBMS. The external model determines the possible interaction between the user and the interface system. This paper describes the concepts of the design of GOODIES. Keywords: object-oriented databases, graphical interfaces, direct manipulation paradigm, browsers, query tools. 1 Introduction Offering database users a suitable interface is an old research issue, and much work ha...

An Extensible Query Model and Its Languages for a Uniform Behavioral Object Management System
Authors: Randal J. Peters, Anna Lipka, M. Tamer Özsu, Duane Szafron
Venue: CIKM
Year: 1993

In this paper, we present an extensible, uniform, behavioral query model and its languages for the TIGUKAT object management system [POS92]. The TIGUKAT model is purely behavioral in nature, supports full encapsulation of objects, defines a clear separation between primitive components such as types, classes, collections, behaviors, functions, etc., and incorporates a uniform semantics over objects which makes it a favorable basis for a query model. Queries are modeled as type and behavior extensions to the base object model, thus incorporating queries as an extensible part of the model itself. We present the framework of the complete query model definition that includes the extended types and behaviors, a formal object calculus with safety based on the evaluable class of queries, an equivalent object algebra, an SQL-like ad hoc query language for user-level querying and proof of its completeness.

Towards the Design and Development of a New Model for Geographic Information Systems
Authors: Niki Pissinou, Kia Makki, E. K. Park
Venue: CIKM
Year: 1993

Existing Geographic Information Systems lack many impor-tant features such as the ability to model the real world more adequately and facilities for logical deduction and ge-ometric computation. In this paper, we study the structure and behavior of existing Geographic Information Systems, isolate their drawbacks and explore the applicability of ob-ject oriented design, logical deduction and hypermedia to developing better and more efficient geographic information systems. In particular, we focus on the concept, design and development of an architecture for the next generation ge-ographic information systems, which will be able to access, synthesize and reason about large volumes of geographic in-formation more efficiently and effectively, without sacrificing functionality, extensibility and consistency. Of significance is the integration of many diverse forms of technological ad-vancements, including object oriented design, expert sys-tems and multi-media systems.
