Request for assistance!!! I am currently investigating different functional optimization strategies for engineering design. My problem is that I am generating a lot of data from each optimization algorithm and I need a database/datamanager to organize, filter and analyze the data. I know of the PD version of Ingres but this would be overkill. I am looking for a simple database where concurrency is not an issue. The optimization techniques will sequentially update the database after each iteration. I would like to be able to select data from different runs, perform some simple curve fitting, normalization, etc., and then ideally graph or write out the results. I would really appreciate any software or portions of software that can be provided to help me with my task. A database/datamanager is critical. I have two college students working for me this summer and there task will be to use any database/datamanager that I receive for my problem. Regards Dave
