Extracting structured data from Web pages
SIGMOD '03: Proceedings of the 2003 ACM SIGMOD international conference on Management of dataMany web sites contain large sets of pages generated using a common template or layout. For example, Amazon lays out the author, title, comments, etc. in the same way in all its book pages. The values used to generate the pages (e.g., the author, title,...
Keyword search on structured and semi-structured data
SIGMOD '09: Proceedings of the 2009 ACM SIGMOD International Conference on Management of dataEmpowering users to access databases using simple keywords can relieve the users from the steep learning curve of mastering a structured query language and understanding complex and possibly fast evolving data schemas. In this tutorial, we give an ...
Bigtable: A Distributed Storage System for Structured Data
Bigtable is a distributed storage system for managing structured data that is designed to scale to a very large size: petabytes of data across thousands of commodity servers. Many projects at Google store data in Bigtable, including web indexing, Google ...
