"High Performance Integrated
Database Architectures"
High performance database architectures must use the new computer architec-
ture concepts such as efficient I/O subsystems and parallelism with flexi-
ble interconnections. Data spaces must be partitioned to mesh well with
the underlying processor topology, and new parallel algorithms must be
developed to make use of the topology and partitioned data spaces.
Software systems of these database architectures must be multi-level
integrated systems with powerful conceptual modeling primitives. Integra-
tion must be extended to accommodate the structures of the object-oriented
paradigm which would in turn allow easy management of multi-media data-
bases. The integration approach can easily accommodate the structures that
underlie knowledge bases.
