Generic Database Cost Models for Hierarchical Memory Systems

Summary: Generic, parametric cost models for hierarchical memory in DBMSs, built from a set of access patterns and combinable to model operators. Validated on Monet, showing accurate costs and guidance for optimization in main-memory and large-buffer DBMSs. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
