An optimal prefetching and I/O scheduling algorithm L-OPT, for parallel I/O systems, using a read-once model of block references is presented. The algorithm uses knowledge of the n...
This paper presents a general methodology for the efficient parallelization of existing data cube construction algorithms. We describe two different partitioning strategies, one f...
