GMQL: A graphical multimedia query language

vGMQL - Introducing a Visual Notation for the Generic Model Query Language GMQL

This paper presents a visual query notation for the generic model query language GMQL. So far, GMQL allows for specifying pattern queries as complex set-theoretical formulas. This fact impedes the practical usability of GMQL, because specifying and understanding a query is unintuitive. The visual query notation we propose is a first step towards resolving this shortcoming. We derive objectives ...

GenoMetric Query Language: a novel approach to large-scale genomic data management

MOTIVATION Improvement of sequencing technologies and data processing pipelines is rapidly providing sequencing data, with associated high-level features, of many individual genomes in multiple biological and clinical conditions. They allow for data-driven genomic, transcriptomic and epigenomic characterizations, but require state-of-the-art 'big data' computing strategies, with abstraction lev...

GRADI: A Graphical Database Interface for a Multimedia DBMS1

In this paper we describe the GRAphical Database Interface (GRADI) of a Multimedia Database Management System. As generally true, the user interface is an important part of the system which strongly determines the effectiveness of using it. In order to find an easy and natural way of interacting with the MDBMS system we examined the query specification process used by humans. We found that incr...
