In this paper, we consider relational queries involving one or more constraints over the sum of multiple attributes (sum constraint queries). We develop rewriting techniques to transform a sum constraint query in order to enable its efficient processing by conventional relational database engines. We also consider the problem of producing partial results for sum constraint queries. We propose a framework for ranking tuples in a relation according to their likelihood of contributing to a tuple in the result of a sum constraint query. Sorting tuples using this framework provides an alternative to traditional sorting based on single attribute value. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
