Dynamic Assembly of Views in Data Cubes
Summary: Proposes view elements—an indexed hierarchy of partial and residual aggregations that act as fine-grained building blocks to dynamically synthesize aggregated and range-aggregated views from data cubes instead of full materialization. Provides a fast optimal algorithm for selecting non‑expansive element sets and a greedy redundant-selection heuristic, driven by access frequencies, to minimize processing and storage costs for populations of views.
