When searching databases of nucleotide or protein sequences, finding a local alignment of two sequences is one of the main tasks. Since the sizes of available databases grow const...
In this paper we describe novel techniques that make it possible to build an industrial-strength tool for automating the choice of indexes in the physical design of a SQL database...
