Dynamic Signature File Partitioning Based on Term Characteristics
(1992-08-01)Signature files act as a filter on retrieval to discard a large number of non-qualifying data items. Linear hashing with superimposed signatures (LHSS) provides an effective retrieval filter to process queries in dynamic ... -
Signature File Hashing Using Term Occurrence and Query Frequencies
(1992-08-01)Signature files act as a filter on retrieval to discard a large number of non-qualifying data items. Linear hashing with superimposed signatures (LHSS) provides an effective retrieval filter to process queries in dynamic ... -
Node Re-Usability in Structured Hypertext Systems
(1992-08-01)When the size of a graph-based hyperdocument exceeds a certain limit, the graph structure gets complicated and causes navigation and document management problems. A simple solution for this problem is the structuring ofthe ... -
