Abstract
A short survey on minimization techniques for reducing the numbers of probes in open addressing schemes is given. Further, universal classes of hash functions (in the sense of Carter-Wegman) are discussed briefly. Finally, methods for constructing single probe retrieval functions are presented such as Sprugnoli’s, Cichelli’s and the author’s approach (Reciprocal Hashing). Investigations belong to the Information Management Research Project (AIM) at the IBM Scientific Center, Heidelberg
