....from optimization, since fi nodes are only materialized when they are beneficial. This paper describes the Gator algorithm, outlines a cost model for Gator networks, and presents how the Gator optimizer and rule condition matching algorithm have been implemented in a modified version of Ariel [14]. Performance figures are given that demonstrate a substantial speedup in the rule condition testing performance of Ariel. 2 The Gator Algorithm To begin illustrating Gator with an example, consider the following schema describing real estate for sale in a city, real estate customers and ....
....met. The final result is the local minimum with the lowest cost. In Ariel, we implemented a random Gator network constructor that builds a complete feasible Gator network for a rule by making random choices about the Gator network structure, avoiding formation of fi nodes that are cross products [14]. This constructor was used to produce random start states for II. 4.2 Simulated Annealing Simulated Annealing (SA) is a Monte Carlo optimization technique proposed by Kirkpatrick et al. 13] for problems with many degrees freedom. This is a probabilistic hill climbing approach where both uphill ....

....way across the three nodes fi1, ff4 and ff5, then that combination would be packaged as one token and placed in the P node, triggering the rule for the new combination. The structure, pattern matching algorithms, and cost evaluation functions for Gator networks are discussed in detail elsewhere [7, 8, 17]. We have implemented Gator in Ariel and are currently testing and evaluating the new Ariel system [17] This paper presents results from a simulation conducted to test and evaluate strategies for optimizing Gator networks in an active database environment.
