Title: Recent Increments in Incremental View Maintenance
(Submitted on 26 Apr 2024)
Abstract: We overview recent progress on the longstanding problem of incremental view maintenance (IVM), with a focus on the fine-grained complexity and optimality of IVM for classes of conjunctive queries. This theoretical progress guided the development of IVM engines that reported practical benefits in academic papers and industrial settings. When taken in isolation, each of the reported advancements is but a small increment. Yet when taken together, they may well pave the way to a deeper understanding of the IVM problem.
This paper accompanies the invited Gems of PODS 2024 talk with the same title. Some of the works highlighted in this paper are based on prior or on-going collaborations with: Ahmet Kara, Milos Nikolic, and Haozhe Zhang in the F-IVM project; and Mahmoud Abo Khamis, Niko G\"obel, Hung Ngo, and Dan Suciu at RelationalAI.
