The K-D-B-Tree: A Search Structure for Large Multidimensional Dynamic Indexes
Summary: Introduces the K-D-B-tree, a disk-resident index for large, dynamic multikey workloads with interleaved inserts, deletes, and queries. It fuses K-D-tree multidimensional search with B-tree I/O efficiency to approximate both goals, with preliminary results supporting the approach. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
