Distributed data processing is becoming a reality. Businesses want to do it for many
reasons, and they often must do it in order to stay competitive. While much of the …

In this paper, we examine the issue of mining association rules among items in a large
database of sales transactions. The mining of association rules can be mapped into the …

We propose a semantic model for client-side caching and replacement in a client-server
database system and compare this approach to page caching and tuple caching strategies …

Cloud computing promises a number of advantages for the deployment of data-intensive
applications. One important promise is reduced cost with a pay-as-you-go business model …

The OO7 Benchmark represents a comprehensive test of OODBMS performance. In this
paper we describe the benchmark and present performance results from its implementation …

Das Buch bietet eine umfassende und aktuelle Darstellung der Konzepte und Techniken zur
Implementierung von Datenbanksystemen. Ausgangspunkt ist ein hierarchisches …

Semantic caching is very attractive for use in distributed systems due to the reduced network
traffic and the improved response time. It is particularly efficient for a mobile computing …

A major performance factor for current OODB systems is the cost of fetching objects from
secondary storage into a local cache as needed. In workstation-server architectures, this …

Client-server database systems based on a data shipping model can exploit client memory
resources by caching copies of data items across transaction boundaries. Caching reduces …

In this paper, we examine the performance tradeoffs that are raised by caching data in the
client workstations of a client-server DBMS. We begin by presenting a range of lock-based …
