Offering a Precision-Performance Tradeoff for Aggregation Queries over Replicated Data

Summary: TRAPP enables precision-performance tradeoffs for aggregation on replicated data. Caches hold value ranges that bound current data and queries blend local bounds with remote master data to deliver fast, bounded results under a user-specified precision.
