Improved branch prediction accuracy is essential to sustaining instruction throughput with today’s deep pipelines. We introduce piecewise linear branch prediction, an idealized ...
This paper approaches the incremental view maintenance problem from an algebraic perspective. We construct a ring of databases and use it as the foundation of the design of a quer...
The cost of a query plan depends on many parameters, such as predicate selectivities and available memory, whose values may not be known at optimization time. Parametric query opt...
A new procedure for estimating the mean process of a doubly stochastic Poisson process is introduced. The proposed estimation is based on monotone piecewise cubic interpolation of...

With the advent of XML and its use as a database language, dependency and normal form theory has attracted novel research interest. Several approaches to build up a dependency and...
