Cost-driven vertical class partitioning for methods in object oriented databases
TL;DR: The HCHA algorithm is presented, which takes the solution provided by the affinity-based algorithm and improves it, thereby further reducing the total number of disk accesses incurred and providing a reasonable near-optimal vertical class partitioning scheme for executing a given set of applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
An evaluation of vertical class partitioning for query processing in object-oriented databases
TL;DR: This paper develops a comprehensive analytical cost model for processing of queries on vertically partitioned OODB classes and studies the trade-off between the projection ratio versus selectivity factor vis-a-vis sequential versus index access.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Cost-Driven Evaluation of Vertical Class Partitioning in Object-Oriented Databases
TL;DR: A cost model is developed to study the effectiveness of vertical partitioning in OODBs, in terms of reducing the number of disk accesses for executing a set of queries, and it is shown that the cost-driven approach is more general and more effective in reducing number of irrelevant disks accesses accessed than the aftin@based approach.
Book ChapterDOI
A mechanism of structural join index hierarchy for efficient complex object retrieval
TL;DR: This chapter proposes a novel indexing method that mimics the class composition hierarchy of the complex objects and provides direct access to them and their component objects and unifies various previous indexing methods proposed for OODBs.
