Abstract

Linear hashing is a dynamic file organization proposed by Litwin. A version of it classifies records using a suffix of the binary representation of the key. Random accessing is possible but sequential accessing is not. By using a prefix instead, sequential accessing is possible but not always efficient. Other modifications are included to avoid poor performance for sequential accessing. In particular, only a limited number of sparsely filled buckets are allowed to exist. The performance of the new data structure is, in practice, expected to be better than that of the Btree.
