Being able to efficiently answer arbitrary OLAP queries that aggregate along any combination of dimensions over numerical and categorical attributes has been a continued, major co...
This paper proposes a new approach for multicriteria optimization which aggregates the objective functions and uses a line search method in order to locate an approximate efficien...
Estimation via sampling out of highly selective join queries is well known to be problematic, most notably in online aggregation. Without goal-directed sampling strategies, samples...
