Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method for generating and using a reusable custom-defined nestable compound data type for use as a database qualifier provides significant advantages over using traditional non-reusable structured tables of RDBM systems is described. The method and data structures of the invention may be used to define and instantiate flexible nested-record structures that reverse and better expose the relationship between parent records and private child sub-records in a database schema to provide improved referential integrity and visibility into database structure.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method associated with nested data structures, the method comprising: instantiating, by a computer processor, a first data structure and nested data structures on a non-transitory computer-readable medium wherein the first data structure and the nested data structures each includes: a first field comprising data representing a label for a linked list data structure, said linked list data structure associated with a parent record, wherein the linked list…
