Database processes must be cache-efficient to effectively utilize modern hardware. In this paper, we analyze the importance of temporal locality and the resultant cache behavior ...
Modern CPUs have instructions that allow basic operations to be performed on several data elements in parallel. These instructions are called SIMD instructions, since they apply a...
XML data warehouses form an interesting basis for decision-support applications that exploit complex data. However, native-XML database management systems (DBMSs) currently bear l...
