Abstract

A method of estimating results of a database query, the results are estimated by performing a sampling of weighted tuples in a database based on a probability of usage of tuples required in executing a workload. A probability is associated with each tuple sampled. An aggregate is computed over values in each sampled tuple while multiplying by the inverses of the probabilities associated with each tuple sampled.
