wide variety of optimization strategies for different quer y languages and implementation environments. However‚ very little is known about how to design and structure the query optimization component to implement these strategies. This paper proposes a first step towards the design of a modular query optimizer. We describe its operations by transformation rules which generate different QEPs from initial query specifications. As we distinguish different aspects of the query optimization process‚ our

Chromatography of Commercial Analgesics Using the thin layer chromatography the major components of a commercial analgesic tablet will be indentified and purified. The active ingredients of the analgesic used were characterized by comparison with chromatograms of aspirin‚ acetaminophen‚ ibuprofen‚ mefanemic acid‚ and caffeine through the use of UV chromatography then the Rf value was calculated for each solvent. INTRODUCTION In this experiment‚ thin-layer chromatography (TLC) will be used

Ink Chromatography Lab Background Information Paper chromatography is an analytical method that is used for separating and identifying mixtures of substances into their smaller parts. Paper chromatography works because the ink used contains several dyes (pigments) that when place on porous paper are dissolved in a solvent by capillary action. When the pigments (solutes) are dissolved in the solvent (water & alcohol mixture) they move through the paper at different rates depending on their

Technical Aspects of ITVEM Systems Optimization Associated with the ITVEM optimization model‚ it will be the optimization of the cost minimization‚ although the optimization can also be in terms of maximizing the performance. To do so‚ Figure V.5 can assist to be a chart reference‚ whereas it should also develop several assumptions regarding the optimization process‚ for example‚ the Cobb-Douglas production function (Lin and Kao‚ 2014) replaces each the desired output (the starred y*it‚ i = 1
