  • PODS and ICDT Alan Fekete (University of Sydney) with Assistance from Leonid Libkin and Wim Martens
    The database theory conferences: PODS and ICDT Alan Fekete (University of Sydney) with assistance from Leonid Libkin and Wim Martens Summary This account, presented to CORE’s 2020 conference ranking review, shows the high quality of these conferences focused on theory of data management. PODS and ICDT are the central locations for a community with very high standards, containing many esteemed and impactful researchers. While absolute number of papers and also citation counts are typically lower for theory work than other styles of computer science, the importance of the work, the quality of the work, and the calibre of the community, should justify keeping the current high rankings for these conferences: A* for PODS and A for ICDT, matching the ranking of the larger conferences with which each is collocated. Overview For about 50 years, there has been an active community of researchers looking at issues of data management. After an early period, in which theory and systems aspects were both in focus, the community has been subdivided into systems- and applications-oriented conferences such as SIGMOD, VLDB, ICDE and EDBT that are dominated by systems-building work in the engineering tradition, along with applications of database technologies to new types of data and queries, and conferences looking at foundational issues such as PODS and ICDT. The latter typically publish papers more mathematical in character, and use techniques from many areas such as logic and algorithm design. PODS started in 1982 and ICDT in 1986. From 1991, SIGMOD and PODS combined for a joint ACM SIGMOD/PODS event, the main one on the annual database calendar.

  • Making Object-Oriented Databases More Knowledgeable (From ADAM to ABEL)
    Making object-oriented databases more knowledgeable (From ADAM to ABEL) A thesis presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Aberdeen Oscar Diaz Garcia Licenciado en Informatica (Basque Country University) 1992 Declaration This thesis has been composed by myself, it has not been accepted in any previous ap­ plication for a degree, the work of which it is a record has been done by myself and all quotations have been distinguished by quotations marks and the sources of information specially acknowledged. Oscar Dfaz Garcia 28 October 1991 Department of Computing Science University of Aberdeen Kings College Aberdeen, Scotland Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisors Prof. Peter Gray at the University of Aberdeen and Dr. Arantza Illarramendi at the Basque Country University for their advice and guidance during the past three years. The work described in this thesis has benefited from many discussions with colleagues in Aberdeen and San Sebastian. This is the part of the thesis where I would have most liked to use my mother tongue to thank in a more friendly and warm way all of the people which help me during these years. But, do not worry, reader, you will not have to put up with a sentimental and trying piece of Spanish prose! First of all, I am greatly indebted with Norman Paton, the author of ADAM, whose encouragement, patience and generosity has been invaluable throughout. I would like also to thank Jose Miguel Blanco, for his friendship and lively discussions, hardly about Computer Science but about much more interesting subjects.

  • A Restful Middleware Application for Storing JSON Data
    School of Computer Science Third Year Project Report A RESTful Middleware Application for Storing JSON Data Author: Alexandru Aanei Supervisor: Prof. Norman Paton A report submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of BSc (Hons) Computer Science with Industrial Experience May 2016 Abstract Over the last decade, Representational State Transfer, commonly known as REST, has become a popular style for designing the APIs of distributed applications which integrate with the World Wide Web. REST has also been adopted by data storage solutions, such as Document-oriented databases, to expose interfaces which benefit from the advantages of HTTP. Such solutions, however, do not fully respect the REST architectural style. This report presents two main issues identified in the HTTP APIs of data storage so- lutions, which prevent them from being entirely RESTful. Consequently, a design for a RESTful interface which aims to solve those issues is proposed. The report details how the interface was implemented in an application which uses an embedded database to allow clients to store and retrieve data. The functional evaluation of the interface reveals that the design successfully supports common data storage operations, but has limited querying functionality. Furthermore, the performance evaluation indicates that the application performs satisfactorily in most scenarios. Based on the limitations identified, directions for future work are provided in the conclusion. Acknowledgements First of all, I would like to thank my supervisor, Prof. Norman Paton, for all his support throughout the project, especially for helping me organise my ideas and for showing me how to develop and sustain an argument.

I received my Computer Engineering degree from “Università degli Studi di Genova”, in 1990, and my PhD in Computer Science from “La Sapienza Università degli Studi di Roma ", in 1998. My research interests are centered on data management, information extraction and data integration. My current research activity is carried on with colleagues from international institutions (AT&T Research Labs, University of Alberta, Notre Dame University, University of Manchester, Amazon Research, University of Toronto). To exploit the results of my research, I have co-founded an academic spinoff, CHI Technologies srl, and a startup, Data Falls – Big Profiles srl. Given my technology transfer experiences and my connections with the industry, I chair the Industrial Advisory Board of the Computer Science and Engineering School at the Department of Engineering of my university. Every year the Industrial Advisory Board raises funds for student grants and organizes seminars, meetings and events to promote a concrete cooperation between university and industry. I am also a passionate teacher. Students have always appreciated my courses, and I maintain excellent and fruitful relations with our alumni. Involving colleagues of other departments (Business, Law, Humanities, Political Science), I have organized and promoted cross fertilization initiatives to stimulate the collaboration between students of different disciplines and to contaminate them with industry and market needs.

The emergence of the WWW has brought about a revolution in computer resource discovery and exploitation across organisational boundaries. Examples of this can be seen with recent advances in Security and Service Orientated Architectures such as Web Services and Grid middleware.
