Abstract
We present results on the average search and access cost of orthogonal range queries on multiattribute trees and doubly chained trees. As an example, we study the effect of page size variation in a paginated tree. We show that pagination may decrease the search cost, but is liable to raise the access cost in considerable proportion with respect to the cost on a non paginated tree.
