A Multi-dimension Hash index design for main-memory RFID database applications
Yung-Feng Lu, Sheng-Shang Ye · 2012
A large-scale RFID application often requires an efficient index structure design for database to provide a highly efficient data processing. This paper presents a new indexing scheme, called Multi-dimension Hash index (MH index), that satisfies all the requirements of a good RFID database applications. The main idea is to provide RFID applications extremely high efficiency in data manipulations over main-memory databases. A MH-Index is constructed based on multi-dimensional attributes that are the keys of one relation. The capability of the design is implemented in an open source main-memory database system H2 and evaluated by realistic workloads of RFID applications. Comparing to other indexes, the experimental results show that the proposed index design outperforms others in execution time.
