TL;DR: The design of a parallel certifier and a partitioned log that uses minimal synchronization to obtain the benefits of parallelization using approximate partitioning is presented and the techniques applied are described, making them applicable to a variety of systems.
A Semantics for Model Management Operators
TL;DR: A state-based semantics of the operators is developed, which expresses the effect of applying the operators to models in terms of what the operators do to instances of these models, and it is shown that this semantics captures previously proposed desiderata for the operators.
Processing queries and merging schemas in support of data integration
TL;DR: This thesis presents the MiniCon algorithm for answering queries in a data integration system and explains why MiniCon outperforms previous algorithms by up to several orders of magnitude.
