Testing an SQL database system by running large sets of deterministic or stochastic SQL statements is common practice in commercial database development. However, code defects oft...
Structural join operations are central to evaluating queries against XML data, and are typically responsible for consuming a lion's share of the query processing time. Thus, ...
Many parallel join algorithms have been proposed in the last several years. However, most of these algorithms require that the amount of data to be joined is known in advance in o...
In this paper, we discuss issues involving temporal data fragmentation, temporal query processing, and query optimization in multiprocessor database machines. We propose parallel ...
The K-Closest-Pairs Query (K-CPQ), a type of distance join in spatial databases, discovers the K pairs of objects formed from two different datasets with the K smallest distances....
