An Integrated Object-Role Oriented Database Model

by Stéphane Coulondre, Thérèse Libourel , 2000
"... The management of object dynamics, commonly called role management in the database field, refers to the evolution of object structure and behaviour. However, this task is complicated by many inherent constraints such as uniqueness of object identifier, strong typing, persistence, encapsulation, late ..."

associated languages, that extends ODMG specifications and includes an integrated role mechanism based on declarative specifications. An object can therefore display several types while it conserves its unique identity. The declarative part provides straightforward modelling capabilities such as, for example

Querying object-oriented databases

by Michael Kifer, Won Kim, Yehoshua Sagiv - ACM SIGMOD INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON MANAGEMENT OF DATA , 1992
"... We present a novel language for querying object-oriented databases. The language is built around the idea of extended path expressions that substantially generalize [ZAN83], and on an adaptation of the first-order formalization of object-oriented languages from [KW89, KLW90, KW92]. The language inco ..."

Query evaluation techniques for large databases

by Goetz Graefe - ACM COMPUTING SURVEYS , 1993
"... Database management systems will continue to manage large data volumes. Thus, efficient algorithms for accessing and manipulating large sets and sequences will be required to provide acceptable performance. The advent of object-oriented and extensible database systems will not solve this problem. On ..."

The SWISS-MODEL Workspace: A web-based environment for protein structure homology modelling

by Konstantin Arnold, Lorenza Bordoli, Torsten Schwede, et al. - BIOINFORMATICS , 2005
"... Motivation: Homology models of proteins are of great interest for planning and analyzing biological experiments when no experimental three-dimensional structures are available. Building homology models requires specialized programs and up-to-date sequence and structural databases. Integrating all re ..."

The Entity-Relationship Model: Toward a Unified View of Data

by Peter Pin-shan Chen - ACM Transactions on Database Systems , 1976
"... A data model, called the entity-relationship model, is proposed. This model incorporates some of the important semantic information about the real world. A special diagrammatic technique is introduced as a tool for database design. An example of database design and description using the model and th ..."

Object exchange across heterogeneous information sources

by Yannis Papakonstantinou, Hector Garcia-molina, Jennifer Widom - INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON DATA ENGINEERING , 1995
"... We address the problem of providing integrated access to diverse and dynamic information sources. We explain how this problem differs from the traditional database integration problem and we focus on one aspect of the information integration problem, namely information exchange. We define an object- ..."

The Ponder Policy Specification Language

by Nicodemos Damianou , Naranker Dulay , Emil Lupu , Morris Sloman - LECTURE NOTES IN COMPUTER SCIENCE , 2001
"... The Ponder language provides a common means of specifying security policies that map onto various access control implementation mechanisms for firewalls, operating systems, databases and Java. It supports obligation policies that are event triggered conditionaction rules for policy based management ..."

systems. Ponder is declarative, stronglytyped and object-oriented which makes the language flexible, extensible and adaptable to a wide range of management requirements.

Ptolemy: A Framework for Simulating and Prototyping Heterogeneous Systems

by Joseph Buck, Soonhoi Ha, Edward A. Lee, David G. Messerschmitt , 1992
"... Ptolemy is an environment for simulation and prototyping of heterogeneous systems. It uses modern object-oriented software technology (C++) to model each subsystem in a natural and efficient manner, and to integrate these subsystems into a whole. Ptolemy encompasses practically all aspects of design ..."

Kerberos: An Authentication Service for Open Network Systems

by Jennifer G. Steiner, Clifford Neuman, Jeffrey I. Schiller - IN USENIX CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS , 1988
"... In an open network computing environment, a workstation cannot be trusted to identify its users correctly to network services. Kerberos provides an alternative approach whereby a trusted third-party authentication service is used to verify users’ identities. This paper gives an overview of the Kerb ..."

It also describes the management and replication of the database required. The views of Kerberos as seen by the user, programmer

Pig Latin: A Not-So-Foreign Language for Data Processing
