Even though an effective cost-based query optimizer is of utmost importance for the efficient evaluation of XQuery expressions in native XML database systems, such a component is...
In this paper we address the problem of minimizing the response time of a multi-way join query using pipelined (inter-operator) parallelism, in a parallel or a distributed environ...
Bitmap indices are efficient data structures for processing complex, multi-dimensional queries in data warehouse applications and scientific data analysis. For high-cardinality at...
We address continuously processing an aggregation join query over data streams. Queries of this type involve both join and aggregation operations, with windows specified on join ...
Traditionally, optimizers are “programmed” to optimize queries following a set of buildin procedures. However, optimizers should be robust to its changing environment to gener...
