Supporting Schema References in Keyword Queries over Relational Databases

Relational Keyword Search (R-KwS) systems enable naive/informal users to retrieve information from relational databases without any knowledge about schema details or query languages. Roughly, R-KwS systems must determine which pieces of information to retrieve from the database and how to connect th...
