Fast Text Access Methods for Optical and Large Magnetic Disks: Designs and Performance Comparison
Summary: Unifies signature files and hash-based inverted files for archival text search on optical/magnetic disks. Hybrid methods deliver fast retrieval with 10–30% space overhead, no rewriting, and insertion-time searches—suited to write-once media. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
