  2. Query optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_optimization

    The purpose of query optimization, which is an automated process, is to find the way to process a given query in minimum time. The large possible variance in time justifies performing query optimization, though finding the exact optimal query plan, among all possibilities, is typically very complex, time-consuming by itself, may be too costly ...

  3. Data dictionary - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_dictionary

    The terms data dictionary and data repository indicate a more general software utility than a catalogue. A catalogue is closely coupled with the DBMS software. It provides the information stored in it to the user and the DBA, but it is mainly accessed by the various software modules of the DBMS itself, such as DDL and DML compilers, the query optimiser, the transaction processor, report ...

  5. Automatic repeat request - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_repeat_request

    Automatic repeat request (ARQ), also known as automatic repeat query, is an error-control method for data transmission that uses acknowledgements (messages sent by the receiver indicating that it has correctly received a message) and timeouts (specified periods of time allowed to elapse before an acknowledgment is to be received) to achieve ...

  6. Goal seeking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goal_seeking

    Basic goal seeking functionality is built into most modern spreadsheet packages such as Microsoft Excel. According to O'Brien and Marakas, [1] optimization analysis is a more complex extension of goal-seeking analysis. Instead of setting a specific target value for a variable, the goal is to find the optimum value for one or more target ...

  7. List of optimization software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_optimization_software

    The use of optimization software requires that the function f is defined in a suitable programming language and connected at compilation or run time to the optimization software. The optimization software will deliver input values in A , the software module realizing f will deliver the computed value f ( x ) and, in some cases, additional ...

  8. Bayesian optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayesian_optimization

    Bayesian optimization of a function (black) with Gaussian processes (purple). Three acquisition functions (blue) are shown at the bottom. [8]Bayesian optimization is typically used on problems of the form (), where is a set of points, , which rely upon less (or equal to) than 20 dimensions (,), and whose membership can easily be evaluated.

  9. Powell's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powell's_method

    Powell's method, strictly Powell's conjugate direction method, is an algorithm proposed by Michael J. D. Powell for finding a local minimum of a function. The function need not be differentiable, and no derivatives are taken.
