....based on sum or max. 5.5 Grouping Unlike in the relational model, we separate grouping and aggregation. The rationale is that grouping has a natural direct role to play for restructuring data trees, orthogonally to aggregation. It is worth noting that such an approach has also been taken [2] in some recent proposals for an OLAP algebra. The objective is to split a collection into subsets of (not necessarily disjoint) data trees and represent each subset as an ordered tree in some meaningful way. As a motivating example, consider a collection of book elements grouped by title. We may ....
