In the data warehouse environment, materialized views are typically used to support efficient query processing. Materialized views need to be updated when source data change. Since the update of the views need impose a significant overhead, it is essential to update the views efficiently. Though various view maintenance strategies have been discussed in the past, the efficient maintenance of SPJ materialized views has not been sufficiently investigated. In this paper, we propose an efficient incremental view maintenance method for SPJ materialized views that minimizes the total accesses to data sources. The proposed method finds an optimal view maintenance strategy using a dynamic programming algorithm. We also present various experimental results that shows the efficiency of our proposed method.

The On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) tools access data from the data warehouse for complex data analysis, such as multidimensional data analysis, and decision support activities. Current research has lead to new developments in all aspects of data warehousing, however, there are still a number of problems that need to be solved for making data warehousing effective. View maintenance, one of them, is to maintain view in response to updates in source data. Keeping the view consistent with updates to the base relations, however, can be expensive, since it may involve querying external sources where the base relations reside. In order to reduce maintenance costs, it is possible to maintain the views using information that is strictly local to the data warehouse. This process is usually referred to as "self-maintenance of views". A number of algorithm have been proposed for self maintenance of views where they keep some additional information in data warehouse in the form of auxiliary views. But those algorithms did not consider a consistency of materialized views using view self-maintenance. The purpose of this paper is to research consistency problem when self-maintenance of views is implemented. The proposed "conveyor algorithm" will resolved a complete consistency of materialized view using self-maintenance with considering network delay. The rationale for conveyor algorithm and performance characteristics are described in detail.

A query processing is a critical issue in data warehouse environment since queries on data warehouses often involve hundreds of complex operations over large volumes of data. Data warehouses therefore build a large number of materialized views to increase the system performance. Which views to materialized is an important factor on the view maintenance cost as well as the query performance. The goal of materialized view selection problem is to select an optimal set of views that minimizes total query response time in addition to the view maintenance cost. In this paper, we present an efficient solution for the materialized view selection problem. Although the optimal selection of materialized views is NP-hard problem, we developed a feasible solution by utilizing the characteristics of relational operators such as join, selection, and grouping.

With the development of the semantic web, a large amount of data being produced nowadays is in RDF format. RDF is represented by a triple. An RDF database consisting of triples requires the high cost of join query processing. Materialized view is known as a scheme to reduce the query processing cost by accessing materialized views without accessing the database. It is physically stored the results or the intermediate results of the query processing in a storage area. In this paper, we propose a materialized view selection scheme by using decision tree to solve such a problem. The decision tree considers the size and maintenance costs of the materialized view as well as the profit of query response times. It is shown through performance evaluation that the proposed scheme increases the number of materialized views in the limited storage space and decreases the update rates of the materialized views.

Numerous data intensive applications demand the efficient processing of a new type of query, which is called a progressive query (PQ). A PQ consists of a set of unpredictable but inter-related step-queries (SQ) that are specified by its user in a sequence of steps. A conventional DBMS was not designed to efficiently process such PQs. In our earlier work, we introduced a materialized view based approach for efficiently processing PQs, where the focus was on selecting promising views for materialization. The problem of how to efficiently find usable views from the materialized set in order to answer the SQs for a PQ remains open. In this paper, we present a new index technique, called the Dynamic Materialized View Index (DMVI), to rapidly discover usable views for answering a given SQ. The structure of the proposed index is a special ordered tree where the SQ domain tables are used as search keys and some bitmaps are kept at the leaf nodes for refined filtering. A two-level priority rule is adopted to order domain tables in the tree, which facilitates the efficient maintenance of the tree by taking into account the dynamic characteristics of various types of materialized views for PQs. The bitmap encoding methods and the strategies/algorithms to construct, search, and maintain the DMVI are suggested. The extensive experimental results demonstrate that our index technique is quite promising in improving the performance of the materialized view based query processing approach for PQs.

A data warehouse is a database storing the information that is extracted, filtered and integrated from several relevant local databases to reply upon aggregated queries. The information stored in the data warehouse can be regarded as materialized views. The materialized view has to be modified according to the change of the corresponding local databases to preserve the data consistency. In this paper, we propose a data warehousing system architecture allowing information sharing (DAWINS), and a non-compensating materialized view maintenance algorithm(NCA). DAWINS architecture allows relevant information to be shared by individual view managers with local data manager for each local database. Unlikely to the pre- or post-compensating algorithms, which are required to remove the effects of some events to other view in the process of view maintenance, NCA does not require any additional query processing, since a local data manager in DAWINS already maintains the effects of update events occurring in local systems.

Materialized views have received much attention for query performance improvement. They need to be refreshed whenever their underlying data sources are updated. They could be recomputed from scratch or they could be incrementally refreshed by reflecting only those portions of updates that affect them. With emergence of XML as the standard for data exchange on the Web, active research is under way on effectively storing and retrieving XML documents. In this paper, we describe a performance study on the incremental refresh of XML materialized views for the case where XML documents are stored in a relational DBMS, and XML materialized views are maintained with incremental refresh. We describe implementation of a prototype XML storage system that supports XML materialized views and their incremental refresh, and report the performance results obtained with the implemented system through a detailed set of experiments on the incremental refresh of XML materialized views. The results show that the XML view maintenance with incremental refresh outperforms the ordinary view recomputation.

A data warehouse stores information that is collected from multiple, heterogeneous information sources for the purpose of complex querying and analysis. Information in the warehouse is typically stored In the form of materialized views, which represent pre-computed portions of frequently asked queries. One of the most important tasks of designing a warehouse is the selection of materialized views to be maintained in the warehouse. The goal is to select a set of views so that the total query response time over all queries can be minimized while a limited amount of time for maintaining the views is given(maintenance-cost view selection problem). In this paper, we propose an efficient solution to the maintenance-cost view selection problem using a genetic algorithm for computing a near-optimal set of views. Specifically, we explore the maintenance-cost view selection problem in the context of OR view graphs. We show that our approach represents a dramatic improvement in terms of time complexity over existing search-based approaches that use heuristics. Our analysis shows that the algorithm consistently yields a solution that only has an additional 10% of query cost of over the optimal query cost while at the same time exhibits an impressive performance of only a linear increase in execution time. We have implemented a prototype version of our algorithm that is used to evaluate our approach.

Materialized views in data warehouse play important roles in rapidly answering to users's requests for information Processing. More views in data warehouse, can respond to the users more rapidly because the user's requests may be processed by using only the materialized views with higher probabilities rather than accessing base relations. The limited duration, during which the materialized views are updated due to base relations's changes, limits the number of materialized views in data warehouse. In this paper, we propose efficient policy for updating the materialized views, which can save the update duration of views although MIN/MAX values frequently change in base relation. The policy updates the materialized views by distinguishing whether MIN/MAX values's changes in the base relation are insert value or delete value. Then, the number of accesses to the base relation is descreased when updating the MIN/MAX values in the materialized views.

In order to evaluate the performance of incremental update algorithms, we perform experimental tests on the time of updating view objects. In this paper, the incremental update algorithms are evaluated on two kinds of materialized methods : materialization by value-copy and materialization by preserving object identifiers (OIDs). The result of performance evaluation shows that there is little difference in the updating time of view objects between two materialization methods. The evaluation of query processing on spatial views shows that materialization by value-copy is much better than materialization by preserving OIDs. As the results of overall performance evaluation, it is more desirable to use the incremental update method based on materialization by value-copy than the incremental update method based on materialization by preserving OIDs.
