Abstract
A method performs a radix search data structure. The method receives a key containing a set of data bits. The method determines a reference index based on a first subset of data bits in the key. The method indexes a reference table based on the reference index to locate a reference field. The method determines a result index based on a second subset of data bits in the key and the reference field. The method then indexes a result table based on the result index to locate a result of a radix search data structure.
