[comp.databases] Request for info: Distributed DBMS Design

tnelson@mips2.cr.bull.com (Tammie Nelson) (09/19/90)

Hi all;

I am looking for current research on distributed database design.  I
am also interested in distributed dbms design tools or algorithms
that anyone may know of.

By "distributed database design", I am referring to the decisions made in
distributing the data among the nodes, i.e. determining strategies for
partitioning and replication.

Suggestions for general or specific sources of information would be
very much appreciated.

Thankyou,

Tammie Nelson
