Lindstrom, Gary E. | The schema coercion problem | Over the past decade, the ability to incorporate data from a wide variety of sources has become increasingly important to database users. To meet this need, significant effort has been expended in automatic database schema manipulation. However, to date this effort has focused on two aspects of this... | Schema coercion; Database schema manipulation; Schema integration | 1997 |

Lindstrom, Gary E. | Migrating relational data to an OODB: strategies and lessions from a molecular biology experience | The growing maturity of OODB technology is causing many enterprises to consider migrating relational databases to OODBs. While data remapping is relatively straightforward, greater challenges lie in economically and non-invasively adapting legacy application software. We report on a genetics labora... | OODB; Relational data; Data migration | 1997 |

Lindstrom, Gary E. | Toward function-based distributed database systems | We discuss the suitability of a function-based (or "applicative") approach to the construction of distributed database systems. Certain aspects of applicative systems are immediatley appealing for this purpose (e.g. data oriented toward conceptual objects rather than toward particular representation... | Function-based; distributed database systems; applicative | 1982 |

Brandt, Richard C. | Building databases for the computer-based memorization system | The Computer-Based Memorization System (CBMS) consists of eight games used by students to memorize groups of related facts that are stored in an associative network. The instructional design is built into the games. Designing and implementing associative networks for the CBMS is very different from... | Computer-Based Memorization System; CBMS | 1988 |

Lindstrom, Gary E. | Consistency and currency in functional databases | We consider a hybrid model of databases, in which a functional component T is defined as an extension to an imperative component B. T. is loosely coupled to B through a highly parallel function network N. which provides a simple failsafe test of whether an existing assignment of values to a given vi... | Functional databases | 1982 |

Freire, Juliana | Managing XML data: an abridged overview | XML's flexibility makes it a natural format for both exchanging and integrating data from diverse data sources. In this survey, the authors give an overview of issues in managing XML data, discuss existing solutions, and outline the current technology's open problems and limitations. | XDM | 2004-07 |

Tasdizen, Tolga | PIMs and invariant parts for shape recognition | We present completely new very powerful solutions t o two fundamental problems central to computer vision. 1. Given data sets representing C objects to be stored in a database, and given a new data set for an object, determine the object in the database that is most like the object measured. We so... | | 1997 |

Freire, Juliana | Designing information-preserving mapping schemes for XML | An XML-to-relational mapping scheme consists of a procedure for shredding XML documents into relational databases, a procedure for publishing databases back as documents, and a set of constraints the databases must satisfy. In previous work, we discussed two notions of information preservation for m... | Losslessness; Validation; Mapping scheme; Edge++; LILO; Lossless Inlining; Lossless Outlining; XML Schema | 2005 |

Henderson, Thomas C. | Apparent symmetries in range data | A procedure for extracting symmetrical features from the output of a range scanner is described which is insensitive to sensor noise and robust with respect to object surface complexity. The acquisition of symmetry descriptors for rigid bodies from a range image was in this case motivated by the ne... | Symmetry descriptors; Range data; Range scanner; Dextrous manipulation systems | 1987 |

Henderson, Thomas C. | UPE: Utah prototyping environment for robot manipulators | Developing an environment that enables optimal and flexible design of robot manipulators using reconfigurable links, joints, actuators, and sensors is an essential step for efficient robot design and prototyping. Such an environment should have the right "mix" of software and hardware components fo... | prototyping environment; robot manipulators | 1994 |

Freire, Juliana | Organizing hidden-web databases by clustering visible web documents | In this paper we address the problem of organizing hidden-Web databases. Given a heterogeneous set of Web forms that serve as entry points to hidden-Web databases, our goal is to cluster the forms according to the database domains to which they belong. We propose a new clustering approach that mode... | Hidden-web databases; Web documents | 2007-04 |

Freire, Juliana | ShreX: managing XML documents in relational databases | We describe ShreX, a freely-available system for shredding, loading and querying XML documents in relational databases. ShreX supports all mapping strategies proposed in the literature as well as strategies available in commercial RDBMSs. It provides generic (mapping-independent) functions for... | ShreX; XML Schema; Mapping strategies | 2004 |

Henderson, Thomas C. | RobotShare: a framework for robot knowledge sharing | Knowledge representation is a traditional field in artificial intelligence. Researchers have developed various ways to represent and share information among intelligent agents. Agents that share resources, data, information, and knowledge perform better than agents working alone. However, previou... | RobotShare; Robot knowledge sharing | 2007 |

Susarla, Sai R.; Carter, John | Flexible consistency for wide area peer replication | The lack of a flexible consistency management solution hinders P2P implementation of applications involving updates, such as read-write file sharing, directory services, online auctions and wide area collaboration. Managing mutable shared data in a P2P setting requires a consistency solution that... | Wide area; Peer replication | 2004-11-18 |
