APPLYING RANGE-BASED FILTERING DURING QUERY EXECUTION BASED ON UTILIZING AN INVERTED INDEX STRUCTURE
Publication number: 20240111745Abstract: A method includes performing a search of an inverted index structure indexing values of a column to generate an in-range indexed value set by identifying all indexed values of the inverted index structure falling within a range corresponding to a range-based filter.
