A Morsel-Driven Query Execution Engine for Heterogeneous Multi-Cores

Summary: Develops SiliconDB, a morsel-driven query engine for heterogeneous multi-core processors with on-die accelerators. On Sparc M7/SSB, it delivers up to 2x speedups over FPGA/GPU co-processors, highlighting energy-efficient, cache-friendly morsel scheduling. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
