(Almost) Optimal Parallel Block Access for Range Queries
Summary: Tiling/striping scheme for multidimensional range queries on 2^q×2^q block grids with k=2^t disks that achieves at most ceil(m/k)+O(log k) parallel block accesses and extends to higher dimensions. Empirically within 0.5 of ceil(m/k) on average, worst-case +3; bound essentially optimal and extendable to some composite k. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
