  • Apparatus and method for organizing, storing and retrieving data using a universal variable-length data structure
    Patent number: 8533200
    Abstract: A method and apparatus implementing a “hadron” data structure architecture. In some embodiments, each hadron includes a frame identifier and a holder for a payload of data, wherein the plurality of hadron data structures are stored in a hadron block that provides a specification that includes metadata that specifies the payload. Some embodiments include a plurality of hadron blocks first and second hadron data blocks, each block including one or more hadron pages. Upon receiving data particles of a dataset, the system forms a first plurality of hadron data structures (hadrons) by creating a first frame identifier and associating the first frame identifier with a first data particle to form the first hadron, and creating a second frame identifier and associating the second frame identifier with a second data particle to form the second hadron, and stores the first plurality of hadron data structures in the first hadron page.
