Efficient Skyline Querying with Variable User Preferences on Nominal Attributes

Databases 2007-10-16 v1

Abstract

Current skyline evaluation techniques assume a fixed ordering on the attributes. However, dynamic preferences on nominal attributes are more realistic in known applications. In order to generate online response for any such preference issued by a user, we propose two methods of different characteristics. The first one is a semi-materialization method and the second is an adaptive SFS method. Finally, we conduct experiments to show the efficiency of our proposed algorithms.
