Abstract :
Hash or B-Tree based composite indexes, are the two
most commonly used techniques for searching and re-
trieving data from memory. Although these techniques
have a serious memory limitation, that restricts free-
dom to search by any combination of single key/data
attribute, that comprises the composite search key, the
techniques are still accepted considering the trade os
with better performance on insert and update opera-
tions. But when the data is semi-static, which does not
change often, there is a need and scope for a better tech-
nique that provides the
exibility and freedom to e-
ciently search by any possible key, without creating any
composite index. This paper explains such algorithmic
technique along with its data structures.
