Rate-Based Query Optimization for Streaming Information Sources

Summary: Rate-based query optimization for streaming sources replaces cardinality estimates with throughput-rate optimization to maximize output. Applicable when cardinalities are unknown or unbounded; prototype XML engine validation shows feasible decisions and gains in early and total results. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
