Concurrent multithreaded architectures exploit both instruction-level and thread-level parallelism through a combination of branch prediction and thread-level control speculation. ...
The join operation, which combines tuples from multiple relations, is the most fundamental and, typically, the most expensive operation in database queries. The standard approach t...
