Abstract

A method of searching data being directed into a data heap looks for the presence of multiple tags on data elements and then applies a group tag to those data elements if all tags of the group are identified. The tags are applied by group tagging applications or 'GroupTagApps' (GTAs), which are small, quickly executing software applications that are each focused on the tagging of data that includes a particular set of tags in order to make the identification process rapid. Multiple GTAs in one or both of horizontal and vertical configurations may be constructed in order to provide any necessary level of speed or take full advantage of an available hardware configuration.
