Annotation: This paper describes a modification of the bitmap index called the Hierarchical Bitmap Index (HBI), which involves the grouping of index keys and subsequent storage in B+ trees. Two approaches to the organization of the index structure have been proposed, allowing to increase the productivity in the number of input / output operations.

Keywords: hierarchical bitmap index, hbi, algorithms and data structures, b+ tree, indexing in dbms, c#
