Abstract
Structuring database records by considering data item usage can yield
substantial efficiencies in the operating cost of database systems.
However, since the number of possible physical record structures for database of
practical significance is enormous, and their evaluation is extremely complex,
determining efficient record structures by full enumeration is generally
infeasible. This paper discusses the techniques of mathematical
clustering, iterative grouping refinement, mathematical programming, and
hierarchic aggregation, which can be used to quickly determine efficient record
structures for large, shared databases.
