TL;DR: An economical method for maintaining routing records in an automated record keeping system that has better performance and lower impact on the remainder of the system than several alternative strategies.
Abstract: An economical method for maintaining routing records in an automated record keeping system is described. Routing records are stored separately from data records on secondary storage devices. A "time stamp" is stored in each routing record, and all routing records associated with the same data record are linked by a "time link". The method is shown to have better performance and lower impact on the remainder of the system than several alternative strategies.
