Effect of skew on join performance in parallel architectures
M.S. Lakshmi,Philip S. Yu +1 more
TL;DR: The MIPS ratio as well as speedup are found to be very sensitive to the amount of skew, so careful thought should be given in parallelizing database applications and in the design of algorithms and query optimizer for parallel architectures.

Limiting factors of join performance on parallel processors
M.S. Lakshmi,Philip S. Yu +1 more
TL;DR: The effectiveness of parallel processing of relational join operations is examined and the skew in the distribution of join attribute values and the stochastic nature of the task processing times are identified as the major factors that can affect the effective utilization of parallelism.
