Abstract

Inheritance hierarchies have become more and more complex according to an enlargement of object-oriented technology. One of the main problems is the effective searching in such hierarchies. More sophisticated algorithms are needed to searching in the data. In this article we present a novel approach to efficient searching in large inheritance hierarchies. The updatable approach employs the multi-dimensional data structures to indexing inheritance hierarchies and effective searching in the data.
