"Determining Validity Ranges of Query Plans Based on Suboptimality" A method for approximating a validity range for a domain of cardinalities of input to an optimal query plan is provided. Such a validity range is iteratively approximated using a modified Newton-Raphson method to find roots of cost functions for optimal and alternative query plans, respectively. The Newton-Raphson method is combined with a method of incrementing roots of cost functions, known as input cardinalities, such that discontinuous and non-differentiable points in cost functions are avoided. In this manner, input cardinalities remain within a domain for which a valid range can be specified. Additionally, a robustness measure is determined by a sensitivity analysis performed on an approximated validity range. Using a robustness measure provided by a sensitivity analysis and resultant validity range and, query plan sub-optimality detection is simplified, re-optimization is selectively triggered, and robustness information is provided to a system or user performing corrective actions.
