Supporting Incremental Join Queries on Ranked Inputs
Summary: Incremental top-k joins over ordered, multi-ranked inputs with arbitrary user-defined predicates. J* generalizes beyond unique-key (Fagin-style) joins; includes a no-random-access version and J*_PA with index-based access; supports nested joins, epsilon-approx variants, optimality results, and empirical evaluation.
