A Signature Access Method for the Starburst Database System
Summary: New signature access with a composite parent-signature for multi-level files, enabling relational AND-predicate queries and text search. Addresses combinatorial errors, scales with more key fields, enabling indexless, low-scan access to many attributes and text. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
