An Evaluation of Buffer Management Strategies for Relational Database Systems
Summary: Introduces DBMIN, a buffer-management algorithm grounded in the query locality set model (QLSM), which predicts relational query references without tying locality modeling to a replacement policy. Evaluates DBMIN against hot-set and traditional schemes using hybrid multiuser simulation. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
