Abstract

We describe a genetic algorithm based heuristic for distributed database (DDB) design, Relation Clustering (RC). Relations in a database are allocated to nodes of a distributed database such that the total cost of executing a set of queries (each with a given frequency) over a time period is minimized. The experimental results are compared with another earlier GA based algorithm which shows about 15% improvement
