High Level Indexing of User-Defined Types

Summary: High-level framework for indexing UDTs and predicates in object-relational databases; orthogonal to low-level access. Direct control over UDT-to-index-key transformation, bound-key generation, and predicate execution; IBM DB2 UDB with SQL integration. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
