Hello,


I am looking for any references to a background reading (Books,paper,..etc) 
about estimating the cost of  query execution plans in parallel (preferably 
shared-nothing architecture).

I am also intending to build a simulation to a parallel shared-nothing database
machines( 100 - 200 processors)  Do you  know if  any similar simulation is
available so that I don't need to start from scratch ?


Regards
Abu
