[en] DATABASE SELF-TUNING WITH PARTIAL INDEXES / [pt] SINTONIA FINA AUTOMÁTICA COM ÍNDICES PARCIAISALAIN DOMINGUEZ FUENTES 27 April 2017 (has links)
[pt] Os índices parciais são estruturas de acesso no nível físico dos bancos de dados que permitem definir um subconjunto das tuplas de uma tabela, através de uma expressão condicional. Nesta dissertação estuda-se a identificação e subsequente criação automática de índices parciais que possam contribuir na melhoria do desempenho de um sistema de banco de dados. É proposto um algoritmo que examina, para cada consulta relevante, os conjuntos de atributos indexáveis para os quais a criação de um índice parcial poderia influenciar o otimizador de consultas na geração de planos mais eficientes. É realizada uma mineração de padrões de atributos indexáveis para se obter atributos correlacionados segundo a frequência das consultas na carga de trabalho considerada. Chega-se a uma proposta para um conjunto de índices parciais candidatos também se considerando uma heurística de benefícios. Realiza-se uma análise de sintonia fina em função da seleção de uma configuração de índices parciais e índices completos. A implementação das técnicas e algoritmos propostos nesta pesquisa é feita no framework DBX, que permite instanciar técnicas de sintonia fina local e global para bancos de dados relacionais. / [en] Partial indexes are access structures on the physical level of the databases. They are indexes that allow the definition of a subset of tuples in a table through a conditional expression. This dissertation studies the identification and subsequent automatic creation of partial indexes that can contribute in improving the performance of a database system. We propose an algorithm that examines, for each relevant query, the indexable attributes set, for which the creation of a partial index could influence the query optimizer to generate plans that are more efficient. We perform data mining on indexable attributes patterns to obtain correlated attributes according to their frequency in queries within the particular workload. We obtain a proposal for a set of candidate partial indexes considering also a benefit heuristics. We may consider a self-tuning analysis of an index configuration with both complete and partial indexes. We have implemented techniques and algorithms proposed in this research into DBX, a framework that allows local and global self-tuning regarding relational databases.

[en] TUNING OF DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS IN VIRTUALIZED ENVIRONMENTS / [pt] SINTONIA FINA DE SISTEMAS DE GERENCIAMENTO DE BANCO DE DADOS EM AMBIENTES VIRTUALIZADOSLIESTER CRUZ CASTRO 29 May 2018 (has links)
[pt] Devido à enorme quantidade de dados nas aplicações atuais, observa-se o uso
crescente dos Sistemas Gerenciadores de Bancos de Dados Relacionais (SGBDR)
em ambientes virtualizados. Isto contribui para aumentar os requisitos das
operações de entrada e saída (E/S) das cargas de trabalho relacionadas. É
introduzida uma grande sobrecarga para aplicações intensivas em operações de E/S,
devida à virtualização dos dispositivos e ao escalonamento das máquinas virtuais.
Este trabalho tem por objetivo propor estratégias que permitam aumentar o
rendimento das operações de E/S gerenciadas pelos SGBDR em ambientes
virtualizados. Por meio da alocação de recursos computacionais, realizamos uma
sintonia fina nas ações do escalonador do ambiente virtualizado e também nos
parâmetros dos bancos de dados envolvidos. Para isso, foi desenvolvido um sistema
que trabalha de maneira coordenada com as diferentes camadas de virtualização.
Foram realizados experimentos que permitem avaliar e medir o impacto da
abordagem aqui proposta. / [en] Due to the huge amount of data present in current applications there is a
growing use of Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS) in virtualized
environments. This fact increases the workloads input/output (I/O) requirements
with respect to the corresponding workloads. This is due to resources virtualization
and virtual machines scheduling. Our work s goal is to propose strategies that
enable better performances for the I/O operations managed by the RDBMS.
Considering an intelligent assignment of computational resources, we have
executed fine tuning actions at the virtualized environment and on database
parameters. We consider a system that works coordinately with distinct
virtualization layers. We show some experimental results that evaluate and measure
the impact of our proposed approach.

Previous issue date: 2015-03-02 / CNPq / Model Driven Development (MDD) é um paradigma para geração automática
de código executável que utiliza modelos como o seu artefato primário. No
escopo de Banco de Dados, apesar das regras para transformação de
esquemas Enhanced Entity Relationship (EER) em código da Structured Query
Language (SQL)-Relacional já terem sido amplamente exploradas na literatura,
não se encontrou um trabalho que ao mesmo tempo especifique tradutores
MDD capazes de transformar, automaticamente, esquemas EER em códigos
SQL-Relacional e aborde restrições como: Participação em Relacionamento,
Disjunção e Completude em Herança ou Categoria são transformadas em
estruturas SQL-Relacional. Neste contexto, visando dar uma contribuição às
limitações mencionadas, esta dissertação apresenta duas macros
contribuições: 1) um Catálogo de regras para transformar um esquema EER
em um esquema Relacional e este em código SQL; e 2) um algoritmo que
especifica uma ordem correta para a execução automática destas regras. De
modo a mostrar a viabilidade e aplicação prática deste trabalho, o Catálogo de
regras de transformação e o algoritmo para automatização do Catálogo são
codificados na linguagem Query/View/Transformation-Relations (QVT-R) e
implementados na ferramenta EERCASE. A avaliação do trabalho foi feita a
partir da transformação de esquemas EER (não triviais) em códigos SQLRelacional,
os quais são conferidos por especialistas de Banco de Dados. Por
fim, comparando o trabalho proposto com os trabalhos relacionados
investigados, constatou-se que o trabalho desta dissertação avança o estado
da arte, pois é o único que é baseado em MDD e garante que as restrições de
Participação em Relacionamento, Disjunção e Completude em Herança ou
Categoria sejam automaticamente geradas para serem garantidas diretamente
pelo Sistema de Gerenciamento de Banco de Dados. / Model Driven Development (MDD) is a paradigm for automatic generation of
executable code that uses models as its primary artifact. In the database scope,
despite the rules for transformation of Enhanced Entity Relationship (EER)
schemas in code of Structured Query Language (SQL)-Relational have already
been widely explored in the literature, we did not find a work that, at the same
time, specifies MDD translators capable of transforming, automatically, EER
schemas in SQL-Relational codes and addresses restrictions such as:
Participation in Relationship, Disjunction and Completeness in Inheritance or
Category are transformed into SQL-relational structures. In this context, in order
to contribute for the mentioned limitations, this dissertation presents two macro
contributions: 1) a rule Catalog to transform an EER schema into a Relational
schema and this SQL code; and 2) an algorithm that specifies a correct order
for the automatic enforcement of these rules. In order to show the feasibility and
practical application of this work, the Catalog of transformation rules and the
algorithm for Catalog automation are encoded in Query/View/TransformationRelations
(QVT-R) language and implemented in EERCASE tool. The
evaluation of the work was made from the processing of EER schemas (nontrivial)
in SQL-Relational codes, which are conferred by database experts.
Finally, comparing the proposed work with the related work investigated, it was
found that the proposed work advances the state of the art, as it is the only one
that is based on MDD and ensures that the restrictions on Participation in
Relationship, Disjunction in Inheritance and Completeness in Inheritance or
Category are guaranteed by the Database Management System.

Evaluation of a web application architecturePelme, Andreas January 2014 (has links)
The purpose of this thesis was to come up with a new architecture for an existing web based planning and administration tool at Ericsson. The main objective was to create a new architecture with a proof of concept implementation. To find out how the existing tool were being used we interviewed people with different roles within the company. We made observations as they performed their day-to-day activities in the tool. We then designed and implemented a new version of the tool. We came up with a database design that handles a very dynamic use of data types. On top of the database we created REST API to allow data to be easily consumed by a web interface and other internal systems at Ericsson. We also showed that the architecture we ended up with performed well even with a lot of objects in the database. We did also come up with a solution to allow people to work simultaneously with the same parts of the system without overwriting each other’s changes.

A knowledgebase of stress reponsive gene regulatory elements in arabidopsis ThalianaAdam, Muhammed Saleem January 2011 (has links)
Magister Scientiae - MSc / Stress responsive genes play a key role in shaping the manner in which plants process and respond to environmental stress. Their gene products are linked to DNA transcription and its consequent translation into a response product. However, whilst these genes play a significant role in manufacturing responses to stressful stimuli, transcription factors coordinate access to these genes, specifically by accessing a gene's promoter region which houses transcription factor binding sites. Here transcriptional elements play a key role in mediating responses to environmental stress where each transcription factor binding site may constitute a potential response to a stress signal. Arabidopsis thaliana, a model organism, can be used to identify the mechanism of how transcription factors shape a plant's survival in a stressful environment. Whilst there are numerous plant stress research groups, globally there is a shortage of publicly available stress responsive gene databases. In addition a number of previous databases such as the Generation Challenge Programme's comparative plant stressresponsive gene catalogue, Stresslink and DRASTIC have become defunct whilst others have stagnated. There is currently a single Arabidopsis thaliana stress response database called STIFDB which was launched in 2008 and only covers abiotic stresses as handled by major abiotic stress responsive transcription factor families. Its data was sourced from microarray expression databases, contains numerous omissions as well as numerous erroneous entries and has not been updated since its inception.The Dragon Arabidopsis Stress Transcription Factor database (DASTF) was developed in response to the current lack of stress response gene resources. A total of 2333 entries were downloaded from SWISSPROT, manually curated and imported into DASTF. The entries represent 424 transcription factor families. Each entry has a corresponding SWISSPROT, ENTREZ GENBANK and TAIR accession number. The 5' untranslated regions (UTR) of 417 families were scanned against TRANSFAC's binding site catalogue to identify binding sites. The relational database consists of two tables, namely a transcription factor table and a transcription factor family table called DASTF_TF and TF_Family respectively. Using a two-tier client-server architecture, a webserver was built with PHP, APACHE and MYSQL and the data was loaded into these tables with a PYTHON script. The DASTF database contains 60 entries which correspond to biotic stress and 167 correspond to abiotic stress while 2106 respond to biotic and/or abiotic stress. Users can search the database using text, family, chromosome and stress type search options. Online tools have been integrated into the DASTF, database, such as HMMER, CLUSTALW, BLAST and HYDROCALCULATOR. User's can upload sequences to identify which transcription factor family their sequences belong to by using HMMER. The website can be accessed at http://apps.sanbi.ac.za/dastf/ and two updates per year are envisaged. / South Africa

Design and implementation of car rental systemAbdel-Jaber, Fadi Fayez 01 January 2001 (has links)
When someone wants to rent a car, the customer will usually think twice about the company from which they want to rent. The decision will be based on factors such as good rates, quality and customer service. The service the company representative offers the client should be fast, clear and accurate. This goal cannot be achieved without an informative system that will enable the customer representative to answer the various questions the client might have.

An Introduction to Functional Independency in Relational Database NormalizationChen, Tennyson X., Liu, Sean Shuangquan, Meyer, Martin D., Gotterbarn, Don 17 May 2007 (has links)
In this paper, we discuss the deficiencies of normal form definitions based on Functional Dependency and introduce a new normal form concept based on Functional Independency. Functional Independency has not been systematically investigated while there is a very strong theoretical foundation for the study of Functional Dependency in relational database normalization. This paper will demonstrate that considering Functional Dependency alone cannot eliminate some common data anomalies and the normalization process can yield better database designs with the addition of Functional Independency.

Kaleidoscopic Community History: Theories of Databased Rhetorical History-MakingGiroux, Amy Larner 01 January 2014 (has links)
To accurately describe the past, historians strive to learn the cultural ideologies of the time and place they study so their interpretations are situated in the context of that period and not in the present. This exploration of historical context becomes critical when researching marginalized groups, as evidence of their rhetorics and cultural logics are usually submerged within those of the dominant society. This project focuses on how factors, such as rhetor/audience perspective, influence cross-cultural historical interpretation, and how a community history database can be designed to illuminate and affect these factors. Theories of contact zones and rhetorical listening were explored to determine their applicability both to history-making and to the creation of a community history database where cross-cultural, multi-vocal, historical narratives may be created, encountered, and extended. Contact zones are dynamic spaces where changing connections, accommodations, negotiations, and power struggles occur, and this concept can be applied to history-making, especially histories of marginalized groups. Rhetorical listening focuses on how perspective influences understanding the past, and listening principles are crucial to both historians and the consumers of history. Perspectives are grounded in cultural ideologies, and rhetorical listening focuses on how tropes, such as race and gender, describe and shape these perspectives. Becoming aware of tropes-both of self and other-can bring to view the commonalities and differences between cultures, and allow a better opportunity for cross-cultural understanding. Rhetorical listening steers the historian and the consumer of history towards looking at who is writing the history, and how both the rhetor and the audience's perspective may affect the outcome. These theories of contact zones and rhetorical listening influenced the design of the project database and website by bringing perspective to the forefront. The visualization of rhetor/audience tropes in conjunction with the co-creation of history were designed to help foster cross-cultural understanding.
