Abstract
Object-oriented database systems (OODBS)
need eficient support for manipulation of complex objects.
In particular, support of queries involving evaluation of
set predicates is often required in handling complex objects.
In this paper, we propose a scheme to apply signature file
techniques, which were originally invented for text retrieval, to the support of set value accesses, and quantitatively
evaluate their potential capabilities. Two signature file
organizations, the sequential signature file and the bit-sliced
signature file, are considered and their performance is
compared with that of the nested index for queries involving
the set inclusion operator (<=). We develop a detailed cost
model and present analytical results clarifying their retrieval, storage, and update costs. Our analysis shows that the bit-sliced
signature file is a very promising set access facility in 00DBs.
