Query Optimization for Parallel Execution
Summary: Minimizes response time under throughput constraints for parallel SPJ, reframing the DBMS objective as a dual. Extends SPJ execution space, parallel cost model, and DP-based search; DP assumptions fail with parallelism, prompting a parallel-aware DP.
