Abstract

We describe a tool for physical database design based on a combination of theoretical and pragmatic approaches. The tool takes as input a relational schema, the workload defined on the schema, and some additional database characteristics and produces as output a physical schema. For the time being, the tool is tuned towards Ingres.
