数据库领域目前的研究方向

简单总结了一下近两年SIGMOD、ICDE、VLDB等会议的文章，认为目前数据库的研究有如下几个趋势：

(1)使用MapReduce来处理一些传统的问题

Efficient parallel set-similarity joins using MapReduce(SIGMOD 2010)

Distributed nonnegative matrix factorization for web-scale dyadic data analysis on

mapreduce(www 2010)

A comparison of join algorithms for log processing in MapReduce(SIGMOD 2010)

 

(2)MapReduce的优化(性能、索引、查询语言等),例如：

MapDupReducer : Detecting Near Duplicates over Massive(SIGMOD 2010)

Mapdupreducer: detecting near duplicates over massive datasets(ICDE)

The Performance of MapReduce: An Indepth Study(VLDB 2010)

On single-pass indexing with MapReduce(SIGIR 2009
