These are incomplete singleton context-free grammars, that can model systems of multiple streams with references to others, called hyperstreams more recently. In order to capture regular path queries on strings, we consider nondeterministic finite automata (NFAs) for query definition. It turns out that CQA for Boolean NFA queries is equivalent to regular string pattern inclusion, i.e., whether all strings completing a compressed string pattern belong to a regular language. We prove that CQA on compressed string patterns is PSPACE-complete for NFA queries. The PSPACE-hardness even applies to Boolean queries defined by deterministic finite automata (DFAs) and without compression. We also show that CQA on compressed linear string patterns can be solved in PTIME for DFA queries.Lire moins >
