A Multimedia Presentation Algebra
Summary: Introduces an algebra for multimedia presentation databases, operating on playout-trees instead of flat relations. Supports selection, join, and set operations to locate, compose, and compare presentations; yields equivalence results to guide optimizers. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
