Abstract
Runtime statistics from the actual performance of operations on a set of data are collected and utilized to dynamically modify the execution plan for processing a set of data. The operations performed are modified to include statistics collection operations, the statistics being tailored to the specific operations being quantified. Optimization policy defines how often optimization is attempted and how much more efficient an execution plan should be to justify transitioning from the current one. Optimization is based on the collected runtime statistics but also takes into account already materialized intermediate data to gain further optimization by avoiding reprocessing.
