An Overview of The System Software of A Parallel Relational Database Machine GRACE

Summary: Describes GRACE’s system software for a parallel relational DB machine, emphasizing data-stream processing and task-based execution. Tasks become autonomous objects with flow-driven execution, reducing control overhead; introduces a novel virtual space management algorithm and presents simulator results.
