Abstract:Abstract. Datalog systems evaluate joins over arithmetic (in)equalities as a naive generate-and-test of Cartesian products. We exploit aggregates in a source-to-source transformation to reduce the size of Cartesian products and to improve performance. Our approach approximates the well-known propagation technique from Constraint Programming. Experimental evaluation shows good run time speed-ups on a range of non-recursive as well as recursive programs. Furthermore, our technique improves upon the previously re… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
