Abstract
To provide a method that minimizes efficiency reductions in processing coupled node trees even if the size of the coupled node tree grows large. In basic searching or maximum or minimum value searching, the search history, not only the address information of the storage area wherein a node is stored but also the discrimination bit position of branch nodes traversed in the search path, is stored in the search path stack.
