However, the power of the modern integration technology lies in its ability to produce high volumes of reasonably complex elements at moderate cost. For utilization of these possibilities the algorithms and data structures already developed must be redesigned for parallel computation."Partially Ordered Search Indices in the Organizationof a Fixed Hierarchy
