A Scalable and Generic Approach to Range Joins
Summary: Introduces a fully parallel, kd-tree-based multidimensional range join supporting broad non-equi predicates alongside equality constraints. Integrated in Umbra, it delivers scalable, low-memory execution and outperforms competing systems on real and synthetic workloads. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
