  Asserting the optimality of serial SJRPs in processing simple queries in chain networks
Gursel G., Scheuermann P. Information Processing Letters 19(5): 255-260, 1984.  Type: Article

Minimization of the total volume of data transmissions (and consequently the time required) is an important goal in the processing of queries in distributed database systems. The problem of finding an optimal schedule of operations for...
