Abstract
Block size reduction iterations are performed on a plurality of blocks of records until a block size criterion is met. An iteration comprises identifying, from a first collection of blocks, using one or more pivot operations, a set of combinations of oversized blocks such that at least one record belongs to all blocks of a combination. A new block comprising records that are members of each block of a first combination of the set is included in a second collection of blocks to be examined in a subsequent iteration. On at least one block created in an iteration, analysis operations are performed.
