Systems and methods for conducting attribute-based queries over a plurality of objects using bounded memory locations and minimizing costly input and output operations are provided. A plurality of attributes are associated with each object, and a plurality of data groups, one each for the identified attributes are created. The objects associated with the attributes are placed into the appropriate data groups, and the objects contained within each data group are sorted into blocks such that each block within a given attribute contains that objects having the same attribute value. Results to the query are created by loading blocks into a primary memory location in a middleware system and combining the loaded blocks to create the desire query results. Block combinations are created based upon the fit of the given block combination to the query as expressed in an aggregation function. A second dedicated memory location can also be provided to hold multiple block combinations to optimize the order in which blocks are loaded and combined. Empty block buffers and external storage devices can also be provided to further enhance the generation of query results.

Interoperability is enabled between participants in a network by determining values associated with a value metric defined for at least a portion of the network. Information flow is directed between two or more of the participants based at least in part on semantic models corresponding to the participants and on the values associated with the value metric. The semantic models may define interactions between the participants and define at least a portion of information produced or consumed by the participants. The determination of the values and the direction of the information flow may be performed multiple times in order to modify the one or more value metrics. The direction of information flow may allow participants to be deleted from the network, may allow participants to be added to the network, or may allow behavior of the participants to be modified.

Disclosed is a method of internally encrypting data in a relational database, comprising the steps of providing a security dictionary comprising one or more security catalogs, receiving data from a user associating said data with a database column and at least one authorized user, generating a working encryption key, internally encrypting said working encryption key using a public key from an authorized user, storing said encrypted working key in a security catalog, and using said working key to internally encrypt said data.
摘要:
A learning-based method for estimating costs or statistics of an operator in a continuous query includes a cost estimation model learning procedure and a model applying procedure. The model learning procedure builds a cost estimation model from training data, and the applying procedure uses the model to estimate the cost associated with a given query. The learning procedure uses a feature extractor and a cost estimator. The feature extractor collects relevant training data and obtains feature values. The extracted feature values are associated with costs and used to create the cost estimator. When applying the cost estimator to a continuous stream of data, the feature extractor extracts feature values from the data stream and uses the extracted feature values as inputs into the cost estimator to obtain the desired cost values.

A method for searching deep web services is provided. The method in one aspect allows organizing communities, sources and schema attributes in a multi-tier containment relationship; searching representative schema attributes in one or more communities; searching representative services in one or more communities; searching for related schema attributes; and searching for related communities.
摘要:
Electronic marketplaces typically apply catalog schema in the format of name-value pairs to store product attribute names and values to achieve a very high degree of flexibility. This vertical schema approach prevents traditional relational database management systems from accurately estimating constraint selectivity and generating efficient query plans. In this invention, methods and systems are disclosed for building and maintaining external histograms and a query planner uses these external histograms to assist query planning in relational databases.

A method for organizing deep Web services is provided. In one aspect, the method obtains a collection of sources and their associated attributes and/or input modes, for instance, using a crawling algorithm. The method uses this information to organize the sources into communities. A mining algorithm such as the hyperclique mining algorithm is used to obtain cliques of highly correlated attributes. A clustering algorithm such as the hierarchical agglomerative clustering algorithm is used to further cluster the cliques of attributes into larger cliques, which in the present disclosure is referred to as signatures. The sources that are associated with each signature form a community and a graph representation of the communities is constructed, where the vertices are communities and the edges are the shared attributes.
