Evaluating Query Languages and Systems for High-Energy Physics Data [Extended Version]

Dan Graur, Ingo Müller, Mason Proffitt +3

In the domain of high-energy physics (HEP), query languages in general and SQL in particular have found limited acceptance. This is surprising since HEP data analysis matches the S…
