CA 2190895

A method maintains information associated with items in a database of limited memory which information is used to generate representations of the information such as high-biased histograms. In a first embodiment of the inventive method, information associated with all items with sales above a threshold, together with approximate counts of the items, is maintained. Appropriate choice of a threshold limits the amount of information required to be maintained so as to generate accurate representations of the information with high probability. In a second embodiment of the inventive method, information used to generate a high-biased histogram is maintained within a fixed allotment of memory by dynamic adjusting a threshold which threshold is used to determine a probability with which information is retained in the database.

éthode pour la tenue à jour d'information associée à des articles dans une base de données à mémoire limitée, laquelle information sert à générer des représentations de l'information telles que des histogrammes à biais élevé. Dans une première version de l'invention, l'information associée à tous les articles dont les ventes dépassent un certain seuil, accompagnée du nombre approximatif de ces articles, est tenue à jour. Le choix judicieux d'un seuil limite la quantité d'information à tenir à jour pour générer des représentations précises de l'information assorties d'une forte probabilité. Dans une deuxième version, l'information utilisée pour généré un histogramme à biais élevé est tenue dans une plage fixe de mémoire par ajustement dynamique d'un seuil qui sert à déterminer une probabilité relative à la conservation en mémoire de l'information dans la base de données.
