Subtopic: incremental updates up

Quote: incremental computation of database updates using comprehension syntax; maintains consistency while updating a value; efficient, strict or lazy updates [»nakaH10_2001]

Subtopic: predicate database up

Quote: predicate data model: identify subset of a database, a set of records, by a predicate [»giffDK12_1985]
Quote: a predicate database is easily relocated, replicated, and independently implemented [»giffDK12_1985]

Subtopic: Vice up

Quote: Andrew was implemented on the Vice file system; needed for large message database [»boreN2_1988]

Subtopic: Lisa List up

Quote: Lisa List can add or change fields at any time; allows any amount of text [»willG2_1983]
Quote: in Lisa List, you can rearrange columns or add new ones at any time [»stewG3_1983]

Subtopic: indexing up

Quote: a database machine is effective for multirelation queries but not for simple queries that can be processed with a secondary index [»hawtPB1_1982]
Quote: create a master file by inverting the programs for entities of a class; e.g., class of employees [»jackMA_1975]
Quote: the CADES holon database is implemented as a transposed file with columns of data [»pearDJ7_1973]

Subtopic: context layers up

Quote: the 'context' layer in Conniver's database shows differences from previous layers [»mcdeDV9_1975]

Subtopic: metadata up

Quote: data descriptions and data should reside in the same repository [»kentW_1978]

Subtopic: compression up

Quote: first use of training for lossless compression of tables; 100:1 compression; determine dependency tree of columns; group columns that compress well [»buchAL1_2000]

Subtopic: buffer management up

Quote: operating system services are often too slow or inappropriate for databases; should support them [»stonM7_1981]
Quote: LRU does not always work for database buffer management; e.g., one-time sequential access, cyclic referencing, one-time random access [»stonM7_1981]
Quote: INGRES typically knows exactly what block it will access next; often not the next sequential block [»stonM7_1981]
Quote: for crash recovery, a database needs to flush buffers in the correct order [»stonM7_1981]

Subtopic: external memory algorithms up

Quote: survey of external memory algorithms; includes sorting, permuting, FFT, graphs, databases, GIS, text processing [»vittJS6_2001]

Subtopic: implementing joins up

Quote: with high-bandwidth broadcast can perform a parallel nested-loops, relational join algorithm
[»dewiDJ_1982]
