According to recent research published in the journal Knowledge and Information Systems, "The Performance and the efficiency of a distributed database system depend highly on the way data are allocated to the sites. The NP-completeness of the data allocation problem and the large size of its real occurrence, call for employing a fast and scalable heuristic algorithm."
"In this paper, we address the data allocation problem in terms of minimizing two different types of data transmission across the network, i.e., data transmissions due to site-fragment dependencies and those caused by inter-fragment dependencies. We propose a new heuristic algorithm which is based ...
