Data warehouses store materialized views over base data from external sources. Clients typically perform complex read-only queries on the views. The views are refreshed periodical...
: The read-mostly environment of data warehousing makes it possible to use more complex indexes to speed up queries than in situations where concurrent updatesare present. The curr...
Data warehouses contain large amounts of information, often collected from a variety of independent sources. Decision-support functions in a warehouse, such as on-line analytical ...
This paper presents general algorithms for concurrency control in tree-based access methods as well as a recovery protocol and a mechanism for ensuring repeatable read. The algori...
A range query applies an aggregation operation over all selected cells of an OLAP data cube where the selection is speci ed by providing ranges of values for numeric dimensions. W...
