Abstract

A method and system for index serialization are described. A data structure containing objects using globally unique identifier (GUID) strings for their identification is indexed by creating a unique key object for each GUID. A master lookup table from GUID to key object is created along with a master table for each element type and a number of non-master tables for the other element type attributes. These element type tables are accessed using the key objects. The tables may then be serialized and deserialized.
