dc.description.abstract | The data sets for many of today's computer applications are
too large to t within the computer's internal memory and must instead
be stored on external storage devices such as disks. A major performance
bottleneck can be the input/output communication (or I/O) between
the external and internal memories. In this paper we discuss a variety of
online data structures for external memory, some very old and some very
new, such as hashing (for dictionaries), B-trees (for dictionaries and 1-D
range search), bu er trees (for batched dynamic problems), interval trees
with weight-balanced B-trees (for stabbing queries), priority search trees
(for 3-sided 2-D range search), and R-trees and other spatial structures.
We also discuss several open problems along the way. | |
