MCC-DB: Minimizing Cache Conflicts in Multi-core Processors for Databases

Summary: Hybrid DBMS-OS solution MCC-DB reduces LLC conflicts among concurrent warehouse queries on multi-core systems. Cache-aware plan selection, conflict-minimizing scheduling, and an enhanced OS kernel facility that partitions the LLC yield up to 33% speedups on PostgreSQL/Linux.
