Multidimensional databases support efficiently on-line analytical processing (OLAP). In this paper, we depict a model dedicated to multidimensional databases. The approach we prese...
Two trends are converging to make the CPU cost of a table scan a more important component of database performance. First, table scans are becoming a larger fraction of the query p...

The Pathfinder project makes inventive use of relational database technology--originally developed to process data of strictly tabular shape--to construct efficient database-suppo...
In XML databases, materializing queries and their results into views in a semantic cache can improve the performance of query evaluation by reducing computational complexity and I...
