Distributed Data Bases: Parallelism and Complex Objects

摘要

There is a need for representing and manipulating complex objects in distributeddatabase systems. The parallel manipulation of complex objects in a shared nothing environment is studied. A view on parallelism and on complex objects, and an overview of some database systems that are either shared nothing or handle complex objects are given. Future research intentions include the input/output bottleneck, data allocation and storage issues and parallel processing.
