ABSTRACT:
A method and system for managing an index tree structure. The index tree structure has a root node and a plurality of child nodes. Each one of the root and child nodes has at least one attribute. Each child node is assigned to a respective parent node in the index tree structure. A request is received for the value of one of the attributes of one of the child nodes; the one attribute is not defined locally within the one child node. The current value of the corresponding attribute of the parent node of the one child node is provided, in response to the request.
