Performance evaluation of a relational associative processor

An associative processor called RAP has been designed to provide hardware support for the use and manipulation of databases. RAP is particularly suited for supporting relational databases. In this paper, the relational operations provided by the RAP ...

The Relational Associative Processor (RAP) is an experimental "backend" cellular processor for implementing a data base management system which supports Codd's relational model of data. The capacity of a RAP device implemented with current IC and memory ...

RAP a Relational Associative Processor is a back-end or peripheral device to augment a general purpose computer for implementing a database management system (DBMS) Its architecture is based on the fact that database operations are inherently set-...
