"... Hypertree width [22, 25] is a measure of the degree of cyclicity of hypergraphs. A number of relevant problems from different areas, e.g., the evaluation of conjunctive queries in database theory or the constraint satisfaction in AI, are tractable when their underlying hypergraphs have bounded hyper ..."

hypertree width. However, in practical contexts like the evaluation of database queries, we have more information besides the structure of queries. For instance, we know the number of tuples in relations, the selectivity of attributes and so on. In fact, all commercial query-optimizers are based

Mai 2011 (Marcel Lucas) The popularity of Networked Virtual Environments (NVE) increased remarkably in recent years where a plethora of players participate concurrently. Traditional approaches applying the Client/Server pattern swiftly reach their limit in terms of scalability and maintainability. Hence, different approaches are based on Peer-to-Peer (P2P) technology. In particular, fast-paced NVEs stress these systems and most likely cause high overlay maintenance overhead. This Master’s Thesis presents a novel approach to spatial Publish/Subscribe (Pub/Sub) in P2P NVEs. The unstructured P2P system BubbleStorm offers flexible and scalable means and is therefore used as a fundamental base for the developed Pub/Sub system. As the evaluation of the subscription is performed
