Abstract As we all know, embedded systems are becoming more and more widely used. All devices with digital interfaces, such as watches, microwave ovens, video recorders, automobiles, etc., use embedded systems, but most embedded systems are implemented by a single embedded application program to achieve the entire control logic.At present, embedded applications on the WinCE platform are extending towards microservices and miniaturization. More embedded device application data requires small, embedded database systems to organize, store, and manage. The embedded database SQLite has many advantages such as zero-configuration, lightweight, multiple interfaces, easy portability, readable source code, and open source. It is currently widely used in the WinCE embedded operating system. This article discusses the technical characteristics of the SQLite database in detail, SQLite data manipulation, SQLite transplantation under the WinCE platform, and finally implements SQLite data management on WinCE mobile terminal based on MFC programming.

B+-trees algorithm is a high efficient and common-used data organization algorithm in database system. But B+-trees algorithm has a disadvantage of low storage utilization. This disadvantage has a bad effect especially on embedded database systems, which have limit storage. To overcome this drawback, this paper presents an improved B+-trees algorithm, and applies it to an embedded database-Berkeley DB. Experimental results show that the improved B+-trees algorithm can attain higher storage utilization at the expense of more execution time than the conventional B+-trees algorithm.

AbstractString dictionaries constitute a large portion of the memory footprint of database applications. While strong string dictionary compression algorithms exist, these come with impractical access and compression times. Therefore, lightweight algorithms such as front coding (PFC) are favored in practice. This paper endeavors to make strong string dictionary compression practical. We focus on Re-Pair Front Coding (RPFC), a grammar-based compression algorithm, since it consistently offers better compression ratios than other algorithms in the literature. To accelerate compression times, we propose block-based RPFC (BRPFC) which consists in independently compressing small blocks of the dictionary. For further accelerated compression times especially on large string dictionaries, we also propose an alternative version of BRPFC that uses sampling to speed up compression. Moreover, to accelerate access times, we devise a vectorized access method, using $$\hbox {Intel}^{\circledR }$$ Intel ®  Advanced Vector Extensions 512 ($$\hbox {Intel}^{\circledR }$$ Intel ®  AVX-512). Our experimental evaluation shows that sampled BRPFC offers compression times up to 190 $$\times $$ × faster than RPFC, and random string lookups 2.3 $$\times $$ × faster than RPFC on average. These results move our modified RPFC into a practical range for use in database systems because the overhead of Re-Pair-based compression for access times can be reduced by 2 $$\times $$ × .

AbstractLoosely structured documents can capture more relevant information about medical events than is possible using today’s popular databases. In order to realize the full potential of this increased information content, techniques will be required that go beyond the static mapping of stored data into a single, rigid data model. Through intelligent processing, loosely structured documents can become a rich source of detailed data about actual events that can support the wide variety of applications needed to run a health-care organization, document medical care or conduct research. Abstraction and indirection are the means by which dynamic data models and intelligent processing are introduced into database systems. A system designed around loosely structured documents can evolve gracefully while preserving the integrity of the stored data. The ability to identify and locate the information contained within documents offers new opportunities to exchange data that can replace more rigid standards of data interchange.
