Heterogeneous CPU-GPU Epsilon Grid Joins: Static and Dynamic Work Partitioning Strategies

AbstractGiven two datasets (or tables) A and B and a search distance $$\epsilon$$ ϵ , the distance similarity join, denoted as $$A \ltimes _\epsilon B$$ A ⋉ ϵ B , finds the pairs of points ($$p_a$$ p a , $$p_b$$ p b ), where $$p_a \in A$$ p a ∈ A and $$p_b \in B$$ p b ∈ B , and such that the distance between $$p_a$$ p a and $$p_b$$
