Publication number: 20170068710Abstract: A system and method for determining optimal query plans within a distributed processing system. The system includes a query optimizer for receiving a query and generating a query plan for execution by the distributed processing system; a repository including statistics related to prior executed query plans; a plan execution engine for receiving and executing the query plan, collecting statistics corresponding to the query plan, and storing the statistics and optimizer usage metadata corresponding to the query plan and prior executed query plans in the repository. The system further includes a statistics advisory tool for mining the metadata to generate a collection of histogram statistics and storing said histogram statistics in the repository. When generating a query plan, the query optimizer searches the statistics repository for statistics, including histogram statistics, useful to the generation of the current query plan and uses selected statistics from the repository to generate the query plan.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 6, 2016Publication date: March 9, 2017Applicant: Teradata US, Inc.Inventor: Louis Martin Burger

Patent number: 8335671Abstract: Determining the structure of permanent charge for an ion channel formulates an abstract operator, describing ion channel parameters, comprising equations that are ill-posed. The model of ion channel behavior relates the function of the ion channel to the structure of permanent charge within the ion channel and concentrations ions around the ion channel under certain properties and boundary conditions. The model also includes regularization of the abstract operator by approximating the ill-posed equations with a family of well-posed equations. An estimate of the closeness of the well-posed solution to the ill-posed solution is provided. Providing stable and convergent algorithms allows the model to determine a stability for the regularized solution, so that a regularization parameter can determine a balance between the stability and accuracy of the solution.Type: GrantFiled: April 11, 2007Date of Patent: December 18, 2012Inventors: Heinz W.
