OBJECT-BASED SEARCH PROCESSING

Abstract:

Structured data comprising primary data is transformed into object-based data comprising the primary data and at least one search function. The object-based data when loaded into memory provides the search function as executable instructions for an object instance. When an application calls the object instance with search terms as input, the search terms are located within the primary data (which is loaded into memory) by the search function, and the object instance returns corresponding field values from the primary data associated with the search terms to the application.
