Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method for processing a data table. The data table is divided into a plurality of data blocks, and a multidimensional data structure for representing the plurality of data blocks is generated. For each data block of at least part of the plurality of data blocks, a respective data element is added into the multidimensional data structure. The data element has multiple values indicative of a first attribute of the data block. The multidimensional data structure is stored for selectively processing a portion of the data blocks using the multidimensional data structure.
