Abstract
Data warehouses collect data into materialized views for analysis. After some time, some of the data may no longer be needed or may not be ofinterest. In this paper, we handle this by expiring or removing unneeded materialized view tuples. A framework supporting such expiration is presented. Within it, a user or administrator can declaratively request expirations and can specify what type of modifications are expected from external sources. The latter can significantly increase the amount of data that can be expired. We present efficient algorithms for determining what data can be expired (data not needed for maintenance of other views), taking into account the types of updates that may occur.
