An integrated data structure with multiple access paths for database systems

Judy Mullins, Vijay Kumar

Abstract

This article presents an integrated data structure which offers multiple access paths for processing different types of queries efficiently. The data structure is developed by fusing the B+ - tree, the grid file and extendible hashing structures using a proper interface. We show that this type of data structure is an efficient way for providing multiple access paths to data.
