Querying Without Keyboards
Summary: Shows non-keyboard (gesture/voice/touch) UIs produce incremental, ambiguous, multimodal, low-bandwidth query workloads that break assumptions of traditional query representations and optimizers. Presents a composable DB architecture using existing components to enable incremental, multimodal query representation and evaluation. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
