Distributed Query Processing In A Relational Data Base System
Summary: Distributed query processing for relational DBs with arbitrarily distributed relations and user-defined data placement. Decomposes queries into pieces by simple heuristics; optimizes response time and communications cost for ARPANET and Ethernet-like networks; INGRES implementation.
