Abstract: Relational queries to a hierarchical database having data tables are rapidly processed. A bridging table is created to transform a many to many relationship into a plurality of one to many relationships. The bridging table is stored on a custom semiconductor chip which parses the query and determines by use of the bridging table which records in the data tables match the query using a custom data algorithm stored on the semiconductor chip. For each match, a pointer to a target record in the hierarchical database is stored. Instructions executed on the custom chip read the pointers or the target records and transfer these to the query requester.
