  abstract =     "A model of storage and access to a relational data
                 base is presented. Using this model, four techniques
                 for evaluating a general relational query that involves
                 the operations of projection, restriction, and join are
                 compared on the basis of cost of accessing secondary
                 storage. The techniques are compared numerically and
                 analytically for various values of important
                 parameters. Results indicate that physical clustering
                 of logically adjacent items is a critical performance
                 parameter. In the absence of such clustering, methods
                 that depend on sorting the records themselves seem to
                 be the algorithm of choice.",
