T.: A Query Processing Approach for XML Database Systems (2008)

Christian Mathis, Theo Härder

Abstract: Besides the storage engine, the query processor of a database system is the most critical component when it comes to performance and scalability. Research on query processing for relational...

löbliche Ausnahme bildet die Natix-Algebra (NAL), welche auf präzise Weise die Übersetzung einer XPath- (2008)

Christian Mathis, Anfragesprache Xpath, Christian Mathis, Ag Datenbanken

öffnet. Bei genauerer Betrachtung verpasst es NAL jedoch, bekannte und vielversprechende Auswertungsalgorithmen, wie zum Beispiel den ” Holistic Twig Join“, in den Übersetzungsprozess...

Observation of negative-frequency waves in a water tank: A classical analogue to the Hawking effect? (2007)

Rousseaux, Germain, Mathis, Christian, Maissa, Philippe, Philbin, Thomas G., Leonhardt, Ulf

The conversion of positive-frequency waves into negative-frequency waves at the event horizon is the mechanism at the heart of the Hawking radiation of black holes. In black-hole analogues, horizons...

Integrating Structural Joins into a TupleBased XPath Algebra (2007)

Christian Mathis

Abstract: Over the recent years, very little effort has been made to give XPath a proper algebraic treatment. The only laudable exception is the Natix Algebra (NAL) which defines the translation of...

Destabilization of a Viscous Film Flowing Down in the Form of a Vertical Cylindrical Curtain (2006)

Pirat, Christophe, Mathis, Christian, Mishra, Manoranjan, Maissa, Philippe

In this Letter, we study experimentally a viscous liquid curtain in an annular geometry. Gap and median radius can be varied in such a way that the base of the initially stationary cylindrical...

M.: Locking-Aware Structural Join Operators for XML Query Processing (2006)

Christian Mathis, Theo Härder, Michael Haustein

As observed in many publications so far, the matching of twig pattern queries is a core operation in XML database management systems (XDBMSs) for which the structural join and the holistic twig join...

T.: Hash-Based Structural Join Algorithms (2006)

Christian Mathis, Theo Härder

Abstract. Algorithms for processing Structural Joins embody essential building blocks for XML query evaluation. Their design is a difficult task, because they have to satisfy many requirements, e....

DeweyIDs - The Key to Fine-Grained Management of XML Documents (2005)

Michael P. Haustein, Theo Härder, Christian Mathis, Markus Wagner

Because XML documents tend to be very large and are more and more collaboratively processed, their fine-grained storage and management is a must for which, in turn, a flexible tree representation is...

Transition to Spatiotemporal Chaos in a Two-Dimensional Hydrodynamic System (2005)

Pirat, Christophe, Naso, Aurore, Meunier, Jean-Louis, Maissa, Philippe, Mathis, Christian

We study the transition to spatiotemporal chaos in a two-dimensional hydrodynamic experiment where liquid columns take place in the gravity induced instability of a liquid film. The film is formed...
