Abstract
Techniques for block-based indexing are described. In one embodiment, for example, an apparatus may comprise a multicore processor element, an assignment component for execution by the multicore processor element to generate a plurality of block-attribute pairs, each block-attribute pair corresponding to an attribute value and one of a plurality of data blocks, and an indexing component for execution by the multicore processor element to generate an index block for the plurality of data blocks based on the plurality of block-attribute pairs, the indexing component to perform parallel indexing of the plurality of block-attribute pairs using multiple indexing instances. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
