In this paper we suggest the requirements for an open platform designed for the description, distribution and analysis of genetic polymorphism data. This platform is discussed in ...
— To cope with bursty arrivals of high-volume data, a DSMS has to shed load while minimizing the degradation of Quality of Service (QoS). In this paper, we show that this problem...
Algorithms that exploit sort orders are widely used to implement joins, grouping, duplicate elimination and other set operations. Query optimizers traditionally deal with sort ord...
