Abstract
Efficient query processing is a prerequisite to the use of any new methodology for data intensive applications. To optimize queries against constraint databases, one combines techniques from spatial query processing, relational query processing, as well as constraint solving. In this chapter, we present some preliminary results on optimizing such queries, and indicate possible directions of future research.
