Query Processing in a Fragmented Relational Distributed System: Mermaid
TL;DR: The query optimizer of the Mermaid system is described, which provides a user with a unified view of multiple preexisting databases which may be stored under different DBMS's.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Mermaid — Experiences with network operation
TL;DR: The experiences with the development and testing of the Mermaid system and with the integration of Mermaid with the AIDA translator are discussed, and the results of the initial performance tests are given.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Distributed query processing strategies in Mermaid, a frontend to data management systems
TL;DR: The Mermaid testbed provides a uniform front end that makes the complexity of manipulating data in distributed heterogeneous databases under various data management systems transparent to the user.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Adaptive techniques for distributed query optimization
TL;DR: Some knowledge acquisition techniques that result in adaptive (dynamic) adjustment to run-time changes are proposed, which improve efficiency of query execution and cost estimations for query execution strategies.
