A 180-nm CMOS bitmap-index-based query processor for fast data analytics

Fast database analytics has become increasingly important nowadays due to the massive growth of global data created by social networking services, mobile devices, and Internet-of-Things. In this paper, a high-performance 180-nm query processor using bitmap index technology is presented. The parallel processing is fully applied in the processor so that thousands of records can be queried in every clock cycle. The post-simulation results prove that a 1.8-V 200-MHz processor can process as many as 5.7 × 10⁶ queries per 92.7 × 10⁶ records in every second.
