Abstract

This is a proposal for a new data-structure called chained B-trees (CB-trees). CB-trees exhibit a superior access cost curve compared to B-trees. They provide the same amount of space utilisation as B-trees and are not any more expensive to build. In this paper we define CB-trees and study their performance vis-a-vis B-trees through extensive simulation studies. Simulations were done through a novel technique which allows large random trees to be simulated in core.
