Disk-Based Hash Library

Disk-based hashes is a method to create multidimensional binary trees on disk. This library permits the extension of the database concept to a plethora of electronic data, such as graphic information. With the multidimensional binary tree, it is possible to mathematically prove that access time to any particular record is minimized (using the concept of critical points from calculus), which provides the means to construct optimized databases for particular applications.
