Open AccessSeveral problems may arise when updating a deductive database. Up to now, the general approach of the research related to deductive database updating problems has been to provide specific methods for solving particular ... -
A complete proof procedure for efficient integrity checking in deductive databases
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. Departament de Llenguatges i Sistemes Informàtics, 1992)
Conference report
Open AccessWe present proof procedure for checking the integrity of a deductive database. We follow the proposal of Sadri and Kowalski. Our procedure replaces the latter's meta-level rules by inference rules that are implemented more ... -
A cost model for random access queries in document stores
(2021-07)
Article
Open AccessDocument stores have become one of the key NoSQL storage solutions. They have been widely adopted in different domains due to their ability to store semi-structured data and expressive query capabilities. However, ... -
A deductive approach to semantic heterogeneity in multidatabase systems
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. Departament de Llenguatges i Sistemes Informàtics, 1993)
Conference report
Open AccessHeterogeneous Databases are becoming increasingly important, but they present several problems. We consider the problem of semantic heterogeneity and show that a deductive model is suita.ble for coping with the problem. ... -
A derivation path recording method for integrity checking in deductive databases
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. Departament de Llenguatges i Sistemes Informàtics, 1991)
Conference report
Open AccessA method is presented for checking integrity constraints in a deductive database in which verification of integrity is reduced to determine if the transaction has induced the insertion of sorne inconsistency atom. In ... -

Article
Open AccessELIXIR is a pan-European intergovernmental organisation for life science that aims to coordinate bioinformatics resources in a single infrastructure across Europe; bioinformatics training is central to its strategy, which ... -
A graph partitioning approach to entity disambiguation using uncertain information
(Springer, 2008-08-31)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper presents a method for Entity Disambiguation in Information Extraction from different sources in the web. Once entities and relations between them are extracted, it is needed to determine which ones are referring ... -
A model for revocation forecasting in public-key infrastructures
(2015-05-01)
Article
Open AccessOne of the hardest tasks of a certification infrastructure is to manage revocation. This process consists in collecting and making the revocation status of certificates available to users. Research on this topic has focused ... -
A new plan generation method for deductive conceptual models validation
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. Departament de Llenguatges i Sistemes Informàtics, 1993)
Conference report
Open AccessA new method for planning in a deductive conceptual model context is proposed. lt is based on viewing the information base modelled by a deductive conceptual model as a deductive database. This is possible provided that ... -
A note on the limitations of utilizing modal logic for federated information systems
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. Departament de Llenguatges i Sistemes Informàtics, 1992)
Conference report
Open AccessRecently much effort has been put into using modal logic representation lan guages for different kinds of distributed database and distributed problem solving systems. We have ourselves presented an architecture realizing ... -

A square block format for symmetric band matrices
(Springer, 2014)
Conference report
Open AccessThis contribution describes a Square Block, SB, format for storing a banded symmetric matrix. This is possible by rearranging “in place” LAPACK Band Layout to become a SB layout: store submatrices as a set of square blocks. ... -
A study on data deduplication in HPC storage systems
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2012)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyDeduplication is a storage saving technique that is highly successful in enterprise backup environments. On a file system, a single data block might be stored multiple times across different files, for example, multiple ... -
