Global query optimization in a multidatabase system (MDBS) is a challenging issue since some local optimization information such as local cost models may not be available at the global level due to local autonomy. It becomes even more difficult when dynamic environmental factors are taken into consideration. In our previous work, a qualitative approach was suggested to build so-called multistate cost...
A multidatabase system (MDBS) integrates information from multiple autonomous local databases. Performing global query optimization to achieve efficient query processing in such a system is challenging due to local autonomy of the data sources. Dynamic factors in the environment make the problem even more difficult. In this paper, we present two techniques, i.e., contention space partitioning and...
