Combining User Interaction, Speculative Query Execution and Sampling in the DICE System

Summary: DICE combines an interactive cube exploration frontend with a sampling-based distributed backend for sub-second exploration. It exploits dwell time to speculatively cache follow-up queries, delivering sampling-aware aggregations through a faceted interface. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
