Probabilistic databases are databases where the value of some
attributes or the presence of some records are uncertain and known
only with some probability. Applications in many areas such as
information extraction, RFID and scientific data management, data
cleaning, data integration, and financial risk assessment produce
large volumes of uncertain data, which are best modeled and
processed by a probabilistic database. This book presents the state
of the art in representation formalisms and query processing
techniques for probabilistic data. It starts by discussing the
basic principles for representing large probabilistic databases, by
decomposing them into tuple-independent tables,
block-independent-disjoint tables, or U-databases. Then it
discusses two classes of techniques for query evaluation on
probabilistic databases. In extensional query evaluation, the
entire probabilistic inference can be pushed into the database
engine and, therefore, processed as effectively as the evaluation
of standard SQL queries. The relational queries that can be
evaluated this way are called safe queries. In intensional query
evaluation, the probabilistic inference is performed over a
propositional formula called lineage expression: every relational
query can be evaluated this way, but the data complexity
dramatically depends on the query being evaluated, and can be
#P-hard. The book also discusses some advanced topics in
probabilistic data management such as top-k query processing,
sequential probabilistic databases, indexing and materialized
views, and Monte Carlo databases. Table of Contents: Overview /

The10thInternationalSymposiumonDatabaseProgrammingLanguages,DBPL
2005, was held in Trondheim, Norway in August 2005. DBPL 2005 was
one of 11 meetings to be co-located with VLDB (the International
Conference on Very Large Data Bases). DBPLcontinuesto presentthe
verybest workat the intersectionofdatabase
andprogramminglanguageresearch. DBPL2005accepted17papersout ofa-
talof 63submissions;anacceptancerateof27%.
Everysubmissionwasreviewed by at least three members of the program
committee. In addition, the program committeesoughtthe

particular topics. The ?nal selection of papers was made during the
last week of June. All authors of accepted papers submitted
corrected versions, which werecollected in aninformalproceedings
anddistributed to the attendees of DBPL 2005. As is traditional for
DBPL, this volume was produced after the meeting and authors were
able to make improvements to their papers following discussions and
feedback at the meeting. The invited lecture at DBPL 2005 was given
by Giuseppe Castagna en- tled "Patterns and Types for Querying XML
Documents"; an extended version of the lecture appears in this
volume. Given the topic of this invited lecture, we invited all
attendees of the Third International XML Database Symposium (XSym
2005), also co-located with VLDB, to attend. Continuing this colla-
ration, we organized with the co-chairs of XSym 2005 a shared panel
session to close both meetings. The invited panel discussed
"Whither XML, c. 2005?" and consisted of experts on various aspects
of XML: Gavin Bierman (Microsoft Research), Peter Buneman
(University of Edinburgh), Dana Florescu (Oracle), H. V.
Der Sammelband behandelt die rechtliche und historische Bedeutung
des Potsdamer Abkommens, das festlegt, wie die Alliierten ihre
durch Debellation des Dritten Reiches erworbene oberste
Regierungsgewalt uber Deutschland wahrzunehmen gedachten. Die
Intention war die Schaffung eines demokratischen Deutschland, von
dem hinfort keine Gefahr fur den Weltfrieden ausgehen sollte. Zu
den Hindernissen ihrer Verwirklichung gehoert der Ausbruch des
Kalten Kriegs, der das brisante Patt von Ost und West erzeugte, das
Europa eine seiner langsten Friedenszeiten eintrug. Dazu gehoert
zudem das westdeutsche Gegenprogramm, das die Verbindlichkeit des
Abkommens fur Deutschland leugnet und ihm die Behauptung des
Fortbestands des Deutschen Reiches uber den 8.5.1945 und die
Identitat der BRD mit diesem entgegensetzt. Beide Widerstande
fanden in der Aufnahme der BRD in das westliche Bundnis zusammen,
durch die sich die BRD in der von den Nationalsozialisten
angestrebten Koalition sah und Hoffnungen auf eine Revision der
Niederlage hegte, denen der "2+4-Vertrag" ein vorlaufiges Ende
setzt.
Vor dem Hintergrund der in der Bundesrepublik anhaltenden
Unrechtsdebatte diskutieren die Beitrage des Sammelbandes die
voelkerrechtliche Zulassigkeit und die historischen Auswirkungen
der Beschlusse des Potsdamer Abkommens vom 2.8.1945. Darin wurde
die Aussiedlung der deutschen Bevoelkerung in denjenigen Teilen des
untergegangenen Reiches vereinbart, die Nachkriegsdeutschland nach
den Bestimmungen des Abkommens nicht mehr angehoerten. Die
Aussiedlungsbeschlusse betrafen uberdies Staatsburger deutscher
Volkszugehoerigkeit in den vom Dritten Reich okkupierten Landern.
Die Autoren kommen in der Einschatzung dieser Ereignisse zu
unterschiedlichen Ergebnissen. Der Sammelband ist daher nicht
zuletzt ein Zeitzeugnis der gesellschaftlichen Aneignung des
Gegenstands in den von dem Geschehen betroffenen Landern.
The notion that God, Yahweh, concluded a "Covenant" or "Contract"
with his people of Israel plays a prominent part in the Old
Testament. Numerous correspondences between the texts of Ancient
Oriental contracts and the Book of Deuteronomy suggest that
political treaties served as model for the theology of the biblical
covenant. Using extant source material, the present study attempts
to trace the complicated path into the Old Testament taken by an
instrument used for the exercise of power in the Ancient Orient.

Qualitat als wissenschaftliche Superidee" und als
generalisierbares Ideal der Medizin ist theoretisch und praktisch
unhaltbar und unfruchtbar, weil Qualitat nicht letztgultig
ableitbar oder legitimierbar und daher auch alles andere als
kritikresistent ist. Das schmerzt gerade im Fall der Medizin, die
uns wie kaum eine andere Disziplin und menschliche Tatigkeit
existenziell betrifft und wo Willkur und Beliebigkeit keinen Platz
haben durfen und doch in diesem oder jenem Fall immer wieder
unterstellt werden konnen. Der Ruf nach Qualitat in der Medizin ist
daher vielleicht auch ein nostalgischer Reflex auf die zunehmende
Komplexitat der Gesellschaft, in der wir leben. Dennoch, als Effekt
einer praktisch-systematisch waltenden medizinischen Vernunft fur
das Gemeinwesen und fur den Einzelnen, als das, was bei uns als
Gut" und gut" ankommt, bleibt sie fundamental. Sie ist das Movens
der Medizin, was sie treibt und was unverzichtbar ist fur die
gluckliche Entwicklung regionaler und globaler
Gesellschaftsneuordnungen. Wider den vorherrschenden Wirtschafts-,
Markt-, Medien- und Politikdruck zahlt und bleibt das, was beim
Menschen fraglos als dessen ureigener Gesundheitserhalt,
gewissermassen als Gesundheitszugewinn oder Gesundheitswiedergewinn
der Fall ist. Dafur, um dies fur unsere Zeit deutlicher zu sehen,
dieser Band."
