Large search engines process thousands of queries per second over billions of documents, making query processing a major performance bottleneck. An important class of optimization...
Abstract. A classical problem in query optimization is to find the optimal ordering of a set of possibly correlated selections. We provide an ion of this problem as a generalizati...
Emerging database application domains demand not only new functionality but also high performance. To satisfy these two requirements, the Volcano project provides efficient, exten...
