Predicate Migration: Optimizing Queries with Expensive Predicates
The traditional focus of relational query optimization schemes has been on the choice of join methods and join orders. Restrictions have typically been handled in query optimizers ...

Optimizing Queries Across Diverse Data Sources
Businesses today need to interrelate data stored in diverse systems with differing capabilities, ideally via a single high-level query interface. We present the design of a query ...

Towards Adaptive Costing of Database Access Methods
Most database query optimizers use cost models to identify good query execution plans. Inaccuracies in the cost models can cause query optimizers to select poor plans. In this pap...

A formal perspective on the view selection problem
The view selection problem is to choose a set of views to materialize over a database schema, such that the cost of evaluating a set of workload queries is minimized and such that ...
