Title: Contextualized knowledge repositories for the Semantic Web

We propose Contextualized Knowledge Repository (CKR): an adaptation of the well studied theories of context for the Semantic Web. A CKR is composed of a set of OWL 2 knowledge bases, which are embedded in a context by a set of qualifying attributes (time, space, topic, etc.) specifying the boundaries within which the knowledge base is assumed to be true. Contexts of a CKR are organized by a hierarchical coverage relation, which enables an effective representation of knowledge and a flexible method for its reuse between the contexts. The paper defines the syntax and the semantics of CKR; shows that concept satisfiability and subsumption are decidable with the complexity upper bound of 2NExpTime, and it also provides a sound and complete natural deduction calculus that serves to characterize the propagation of knowledge between contexts.

Title: Spanner: Google's Globally-Distributed Database

Spanner is Google's scalable, multi-version, globally-distributed, and synchronously-replicated database. It is the first system to distribute data at global scale and support externally-consistent distributed transactions. This paper describes how Spanner is structured, its feature set, the rationale underlying various design decisions, and a novel time API that exposes clock uncertainty. This API and its implementation are critical to supporting external consistency and a variety of powerful features: non-blocking reads in the past, lock-free read-only transactions, and atomic schema changes, across all of Spanner.

Title: Multidimensional Integrated Ontologies: A Framework for Designing Semantic Data Warehouses

The Semantic Web enables companies and organizations to gather huge amounts of valuable semantically annotated data concerning their subjects of interest. Nowadays, many applications attach metadata and semantic annotations taken from domain and application ontologies to the information they generate. From our point of view, the concepts in these ontologies could describe the facts, dimensions, categories and values implied in the analysis subjects of a data warehouse. In this paper we propose the Semantic Data Warehouse to be a repository of ontologies and semantically annotated data resources. We also propose an ontology-driven framework to design multidimensional analysis models for Semantic Data Warehouses. This framework provides means for building an integrated ontology, called the Multidimensional Integrated Ontology (MIO), including the classes, relationships and instances that represent interesting analysis dimensions and measures. The reasoning capabilities of a MIO can be used to check the properties required by current multidimensional databases (e.g., dimension orthogonality, category satisfiability, etc.). In this paper we also sketch how the instance data of a MIO can be translated into OLAP cubes for analysis purposes. Finally, some implementation issues of the overall framework are discussed. Keywords: Data warehouses, Semantic Web, Multi-ontology integration 1.

Title: Time-based calibration of effectiveness measures

Many current effectiveness measures incorporate simplifying assumptions about user behavior. These assumptions prevent the measures from reflecting aspects of the search process that directly impact the quality of retrieval results as experienced by the user. In particular, these measures implicitly model users as working down a list of retrieval results, spending equal time assessing each document. In reality, even a careful user, intending to identify as much relevant material as possible, must spend longer on some documents than on others. Aspects such as document length, duplicates and summaries all influence the time required. In this paper, we introduce a time-biased gain measure, which explicitly accommodates such aspects of the search process. By conducting an appropriate user study, we calibrate and validate the measure against the TREC 2005 Robust Track test collection. We examine properties of the measure, contrasting it to traditional effectiveness measures, and exploring its extension to other aspects and environments. As its primary benefit, the measure allows us to evaluate system performance in human terms, while maintaining the simplicity and repeatability of system-oriented tests. Overall, we aim to achieve a clearer connection between user-oriented studies and system-oriented tests, allowing us to better transfer insights and outcomes from one to the other.

Title: Human-Powered Sorts and Joins

Crowdsourcing markets like Amazon’s Mechanical Turk (MTurk) make it possible to task people with small jobs, such as labeling images or looking up phone numbers, via a programmatic interface. MTurk tasks for processing datasets with humans are currently designed with significant reimplementation of common workflows and ad-hoc selection of parameters such as price to pay per task. We describe how we have integrated crowds into a declarative workflow engine called Qurk to reduce the burden on workflow designers. In this paper, we focus on how to use humans to compare items for sorting and joining data, two of the most common operations in DBMSs. We describe our basic query interface and the user interface of the tasks we post to MTurk. We also propose a number of optimizations, including task batching, replacing pairwise comparisons with numerical ratings, and pre-filtering tables before joining them, which dramatically reduce the overall cost of running sorts and joins on the crowd. In an experiment joining two sets of images, we reduce the overall cost from $67 in a naive implementation to about $3, without substantially affecting accuracy or latency. In an end-to-end experiment, we reduced cost by a factor of 14:5.

Title: Model-independent schema and data translation

A runtime approach to model-generic translation of schema and data is proposed. It is based on our previous work on MIDST, a platform conceived to perform translations in an off-line fashion. In the original approach, the source database is imported into a dictionary, where it is stored according to a universal model. Then, the translation is applied within the tool as a composition of elementary transformation steps, specified as Datalog programs. Finally, the result is exported into the operational system. Here we illustrate a new, lightweight approach where the database is not imported. The tool needs only to know the model and the schema of the source database and generates views on the operational system that transform the underlying data (stored in the source schema) according to the corresponding schema in the target model. Views are generated in an almost automatic way, on the basis of the Datalog rules for schema translation. Current work on extensions of the approach to the family of the so called noSQL systems will also be sketched.

Title: Learning in Query Optimization

Database Systems let users specify queries in a declarative language like SQL. Most modern DBMS optimizers rely upon a cost model to choose the best query execution plan (QEP) for any given query. Cost estimates are heavily dependent upon the optimizers estimates for the number of rows that will result at each step of the QEP for complex queries involving many predicates and/or operations. These estimates, in turn, rely upon statistics on the database and modeling assumptions that may or may not be true for a given database. In my talk, I will present an overview of the research on learning in query optimization. I will introduce the concept of a LEarning Optimizer (LEO) as a comprehensive way to repair incorrect statistics and cardinality estimates of a query execution plan. By monitoring executed queries, LEO compares the optimizers estimates with actuals at each step in a QEP, and computes adjustments to cost estimates and statistics that may be used during the current and future query optimizations. LEO introduces a feedback loop to query optimization that enhances the available information on the database where the most queries have occurred, allowing the optimizer to actually learn from its past mistakes. In the second part of the talk, I describe how the knowledge gleaned by LEO is exploited consistently in a query optimizer, by adjusting the optimizers model and by maximizing information entropy. In the third part of the talk, I will briefly sketch my current research work and vision on Information Management in the Cloud in the Stratosphere (massively parallel and distributed processing) and MIA (information marketplace) projects.
