Thiel, L. H.; Heaps, H. S. – Information Storage and Retrieval, 1972
Retrospective search of large data bases requires development of special techniques for automatic compression of data and minimization of the number of input-output operations to the computer files. The computer program should require a relatively small amount of internal memory. This paper describes the structure of such a program. (9 references)…
