摘要
当前B^+树索引结构常采用"溢出页"处理重复出现的键值,易于实现,但存在严重的空间浪费。该文通过改进索引结构的定义,使B^+树能够显式支持重复键值,并给出相应算法。实验证明,采用该方法的P+树能有效减少索引文件的大小,使B^+树满足更多数据库索引的需求。
Overflow page is commonly used to deal with the duplicate keys of a B^+ tree index, although it is easy to implement, it introduces great space waste. This paper adopts an ahernative approach to make the B^+tree explicitly support the duplicate keys by revising the index structure, and provides the basic algorithms to implement the idea. Experiment indicates that the revised B^+ tree can significantly reduce the size of the index file, which broadens the application area of B^+ tree.
