Interactive Analysis of Web-Scale Data

CIDR (2009)
Abstract:
We consider how to support interactive querying over web-
scale data. The basic approach is to view querying as a
two-phase activity: rst supply a query template, and later
supply specic instantiations of the template. Interactive
responsiveness is oered in the second phase only. While in-
stances of this problem have been studied in the past, e.g.,
OLAP and web search, we pursue a more general formula-
tion. Our aim is to build a general two-phase query system.
