Abstract
One of the problems arising upon the evolution of a database schema is that some queries and views defined on the previous schema version might no longer work properly. Thus, evolving a database schema entails the redefinition of queries and views to adapt them to the new schema. Although this problem has been mainly raised in the context of traditional information systems, solutions to it are also advocated in other database-related areas, such as Data Integration, Web Data Integration, and Data Warehouses. The problem is a critical one, since industrial organizations often need to adapt their databases and data warehouses to frequent changes in the real world. In this article, we provide a survey of existing approaches and tools to the problem of adapting queries and views upon a database schema evolution; we also propose a classification framework to enable a uniform comparison method among many heterogeneous approaches and tools.

Dependency-Based Query/View Synchronization upon Schema Evolutions
Advances in Conceptual ModelingAbstractQuery/view synchronization upon the evolution of a database schema is a critical problem that has drawn the attention of many researchers in the database community. It entails rewriting queries and views to make them continue work on the new ...
XML materialized views and schema evolution in VIREX
Web-based databases are gaining increased popularity. This has positively influenced the availability of structured and semi-structured databases for access by a variety of users ranging from professionals to naive users. The number of users accessing ...
Reformulating XPath queries and XSLT queries on XSLT views
Applications using XML for data representation very often use different XML formats and thus require the transformation of XML data. The common approach transforms entire XML documents from one format into another, e.g. by using an XSLT stylesheet. ...
