Abstract

Linear hashing provides constant time operations for data indexing and has been widely implemented for database systems. Embedded devices, often with limited memory and CPU resources, are increasingly collecting and processing more data and benefit from fast index structures. Implementing linear hashing for flash-based embedded devices is challenging both due to the limited resources and the unique properties of flash memory. In this work, an implementation of linear hashing optimized for embedded devices is presented and evaluated. Experimental results demonstrate that the implementation has constant time performance on embedded devices, even with as little as 8 KB of memory, and offers benefits for several use cases.
