High-dimensional Data Cubes

Christoph Koch, Sachin Basil John, Peter Lindner

We introduce an approach to supporting high-dimensional data cubes at interactive query speeds and moderate storage cost. Our approach is based on binary(-domain) data cubes that are judiciously partially materialized; the missing information can be quickl ...

The Importance of Parameters in Database Queries

Peter Lindner

We propose and study a framework for quantifying the importance of the choices of parameter values to the result of a query over a database. These parameters occur as constants in logical queries, such as conjunctive queries. In our framework, the importan ...

Generalizing Bulk-Synchronous Parallel Processing for Data Science: From Data to Threads and Agent-Based Simulations

Christoph Koch, Zilu Tian, Val Tannen, Peter Lindner

We generalize the bulk-synchronous parallel (BSP) processing model to make it better support agent-based simulations. Such simulations frequently exhibit hierarchical structure in their communication patterns which can be exploited to improve performance. ...

Aggregation and Exploration of High-Dimensional Data Using the Sudokube Data Cube Engine

Christoph Koch, Sachin Basil John, Zhekai Jiang, Peter Lindner

We present Sudokube, a novel system that supports interactive speed querying on high-dimensional data using partially materialized data cubes. Given a storage budget, it judiciously chooses what projections to precompute and materialize during cube constru ...
