Jesus Camacho Rodriguez commented on CALCITE-1234:
--------------------------------------------------

Also this one by the guys at TU Berlin:
Opening the Black Boxes in Data Flow Optimization
http://stratosphere.eu/assets/papers/openingTheBlackBoxes_12.pdf
In the context of their Stratosphere project (MR + additional primitives), they 
define a set of properties that when known are sufficient to reorder operators 
even when we do not know their semantics.

> Annotate table functions to allow pushing down project, filter

> In general it is not possible to push relational operators through table 
> functions but many table functions have properties that will allow push down: 
> for instance, they might preserve fields, preserve row count, return rows in 
> the same order. If we annotate a table function with these properties, we can 
> automatically push down a Filter, and so forth.
> Some ideas:
> * {{PreservesFieldNames}}: If an output field has the same name as an input 
> field, it is assumed to be the same field.
> * {{PreservesRows}}: Each input row causes exactly one output row, in the 
> same order.
> * {{FiltersRows}}: Each input row causes at most one output row, in the same 
> order.
> * {{PreservesFieldPositions}}: The leading N columns of the output are 
> equivalent to the leading N columns of the input.
> If {{(PreservesFieldNames or PreservesFieldPositions) and (PreservesRows or 
> FiltersRows)}}, it is safe to push down a Filter if all of the fields of the 
> predicate exist in the input.
> Similarly pushing down a Project; and we can push down an Aggregate if 
> {{PreservesRows}}.
