We present a new semantic caching scheme suitable for wrappers in web databases. Since the web sources in web databases have typically weaker querying capabilities than conventional databases, it is...

TBE: Trigger-By-Example (1999)

Dongwon Lee, Wenlei Mao, Wesley W. Chu

Triggers have been adopted as an important database feature and implemented by most major database vendors. Despite their diverse potential usages, one of the obstacles that hinder the triggers from...

A Graphical Interface for Writing Trigger Rules in Active Databases (1999)

Dongwon Lee, Wenlei Mao, Henry Chiu, Wesley W. Chu

Triggers have been adopted as an important database feature and implemented by most major database vendors. Despite their diverse potential usages, one of the obstacles that hinder the triggers from...

Fast Retrieval of Similar Subsequences in Long Sequence Databases (1999)

Sanghyun Park, Dongwon Lee, Wesley W. Chu

Many Indexing techniques have been proposed to support the fast retrieval of similar sequences using the Euclidean distance metric. Since the Euclidean distance metric requires that two sequences be...

Generating Advanced Query Interfaces (1998)

Dongwon Lee, Divesh Srivastava, Dimitra Vista

With the increasing popularity oftheWorld Wide Web, the number of information sources providing access to various types of data has increased considerably. While simple data retrieval queries are...

Conjunctive Point Predicate-based Semantic Caching for Wrappers in Web Databases (1998)

Dongwon Lee, Wesley W. Chu

A novel semantic caching scheme suitable for web database environments is proposed. In our scheme, tasks for query translation/capability mapping (named as "query naturalization")...

Generating Advanced Query Interfaces (1998)

Dongwon Lee, Divesh Srivastava, Dimitra Vista, Rm B

g the burden from users of having to know the interface and query language specifics of the individual information sources. The tool accepts as input a high-level specification of the interface and...

Price Points and Price Rigidity

Daniel Levy, Dongwon Lee, Haipeng Allan Chen, Robert J. Kauffman, Mark Bergen

We offer new evidence on the link between price points and price rigidity using two datasets. One is a large weekly transaction price dataset, covering 29 product categories over an eight-year period...

Price Points and Price Rigidity

Daniel Levy, Dongwon Lee, Haipeng Chen, Robert Kauffman, Mark Bergen

We study the link between price points and price rigidity, using two datasets containing over 100 million observations. We find that (i) 9 is the most frequently used price-ending for the penny,...

Detection of hydrogen peroxide with chemiluminescent micelles

Lee, Dongwon, Erigala, Venkata R, Dasari, Madhuri, Yu, Junhua, Dickson, Robert M, Murthy, Niren

The overproduction of hydrogen peroxide is implicated in the progress of numerous life-threatening diseases and there is a great need for the development of contrast agents that can detect hydrogen...
