Abstract

A computer-implemented process for accelerating operations of a real time decision support system executing on a computer including the steps of determining the elements of a query, determining sources of data which are reference collections for a query, determining if a query contains subexpressions over reference collections which are sources of data for the query, precomputing results for functions on data in reference collections which are sources of data for the query, and caching the precomputed results.
