Client-Site Query Extensions

Summary: Client-site UDFs drive query execution; server-side approaches perform poorly. Adapts distributed DB algorithms to client locations; implemented in Cornell Predator; extends System-R style optimization for client-site ops, with empirical gains. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
