- Abstract
- This paper presents a tunable two-dimensional class hierarchy indexing technique (2D-CHI) for object-oriented databases. We nse a two-dimensional file organization as the index structure. 2D-CHI deals with the problem of clustering objects in a two-dimensional domain space consisting of the key attribute domain and the class identifier domain. In conventional class indexing techniques using one-dimensional index structures such as the Bt-tree, the clustering property! is exclusively owned by one attribute. These indexing techniques do not efficiently handle the queries that address both the attribute keys and the class identifiers. 2D-CHI enhances query performance by adjusting the degree of clustering between the key value domain and the class identifier domain based on the precollected usage pattern. For performance evaluation, we first compare 2D-CHI with the conventional class indexing techniques using no analytic cost model based on the assumption of uniform object distribution, and then, verify the cost model through experiments using the multilevel grid file as the two-dimensional index. We further perform experiments with nonuniform object distributions. Our experiments show that our proposed method does indeed build optimal class index structures regardless of query types and object distributions. We strongly believe that our paper significantly contributes to building a self-tunable database system by supporting automatically tunable index structure.
