The VIRTUOSE distributed object store

摘要

The efficiency of the object store of an object-oriented database management system strongly depends on the way in which memory and distribution management aspects are considered. Such aspects include addressing, concurrency control management, distribution management and cache management. The Arias distributed-shared-memory system's characteristics provides an interesting framework for those aspects and for building scalable applications. This paper shows how we used the Arias system for designing and implementing the VIRTUOSE (VIRTual Object StorE) distributed object store.
