DESCRIPTION:Dr. Dan Olteanu\, Oxford University\nAbstract :\nIn this talk 
 I will present a representation system for relational data  based on alge
 braic factorisation using distributivity of product over union and commuta
 tivity of product and union. The main part of the talk is on a characteris
 ation of select-project-join (aka conjunctive) queries based on sizes of f
 actorisations of query results. Early experimental results with a query en
 gine for factorised databases suggest that factorised representations can 
 significantly speed up query evaluation in relational databases.\nThis is 
 joint work with Jakub Zavodny.\n\nBio :\nSee Dr. Dan Olteanu's page\nhttp:
