  • Patent number: 9454550
    Abstract: A Database method for a B+ tree based on a PRAM. The database method divides each node into two areas, area 1 and area 2. A key value is inserted/retrieved/deleted for the each node. Inserting the key value requires firstly inserting a new key value to area 2 if area 2 in the node is not in a full state. Retrieving the key value requires identifying whether the node is a leaf node. If the node is a leaf node, the key value is retrieved from area 1 and area 2 sequentially. Deleting the key value requires merging area 1 and area 2 in the node, and deleting the key value in the merged node. The method enhances durability and data processing capability.
