Optimization of SQL Queries for Parallel Machines


Free Download Optimization of SQL Queries for Parallel Machines By Waqar Hasan (eds.)
1996 | 140 Pages | ISBN: 3540620656 | PDF | 2 MB
Parallel execution of SQL queries against large databases offers a solution to the problem of reducing query response. This book addresses the related optimization problem: Given an SQL query, find the plan that delivers the result in minimal time. The author presents and analyzes new theoretical findings and efficient algorithms pertaining to parallel operation at a practical level of granularity relevant to database system operations. The optimization results balance the advantages and costs of parallel execution of SQL queries. The techniques presented are applicable to modern system configurations, where computation is performed on pipelining-capable workstations operating in parallel, and can be used to construct SQL compilers able to exploit parallel machines effectively.

Basics of Nonlinear Optimization


Free Download Basics of Nonlinear Optimization: Around the Weierstrass Theorem
English | 2024 | ISBN: 3031771591 | 173 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 10 MB
This textbook gives an introduction to optimization tools which arise around the Weierstrass theorem about the minimum of a lower semicontinuous function. Starting from a Euclidean space, it moves further into the infinite dimensional setting towards the direct variational method, going through differentiation and introducing relevant background information on the way.

Convex Stochastic Optimization


Free Download Convex Stochastic Optimization: Dynamic Programming and Duality in Discrete Time
English | 2024 | ISBN: 3031764315 | 423 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 36 MB
This book studies a general class of convex stochastic optimization (CSO) problems that unifies many common problem formulations from operations research, financial mathematics and stochastic optimal control. We extend the theory of dynamic programming and convex duality to allow for a unified and simplified treatment of various special problem classes found in the literature. The extensions allow also for significant generalizations to existing problem formulations. Both dynamic programming and duality have played crucial roles in the development of various optimality conditions and numerical techniques for the solution of convex stochastic optimization problems.
