TL;DR: In this paper, a multiprocessor system intercouples the processors with an active logic network having a plurality of priority determining nodes, where messages applied concurrently to the network in groups are sorted, using the data content of the messages, to a single or common priority message which is distributed to all the processors.

Abstract: A multiprocessor system intercouples the processors with an active logic network having a plurality of priority determining nodes. Messages applied concurrently to the network in groups are sorted, using the data content of the messages, to a single or common priority message which is distributed to all the processors with a predetermined total network delay time. Losing messages are again retried concurrently in groups at a later time. Message routing is determined by local acceptance or rejection of messages at the processors, based upon destination data in the messages. All messages occupy places in a coherent priority scheme and are transferred in contending groups with prioritization on the network. Using data, status, control and response messages, and different multiprocessor modes, the system is particularly suited for configuration in a relational data base machine having capability for maintaining an extended data base and handling complex queries.

Method and system for processing data records
David Bayliss
- 04 Feb 2003
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for identifying an entity from a plurality of entity references, each entity reference being linked with a separate ghost entity, is provided, which comprises the steps of comparing an entity reference of a first ghost entity with an entity relation of a second ghost entity to determine a match probability between the entity reference between the first ghost entities and the entity references of the second ghost entities.

Automated query optimization method using both global and parallel local optimizations for materialization access planning for distributed databases
Patricia A. Dwyer
- 28 Feb 1985
TL;DR: In this paper, three access planning methods are used: General (Response), General (Total) and Initial Feasible Solution (IFS) for a distributed query, General(Response) and General(Total) decrease the communication cost and increase the local processing costs as compared to the IFS.
