Description
Exposing the concepts underlying object-oriented databases, this volume is a collection of practical readings by object-oriented professionals. In addition to providing readers with a perspective on various object-oriented concepts and an overview of existing object-oriented databases, the guide features a series of real world examples and a brief overview of the C++ programming language. In detail, the volume explains such object-oriented concepts as artificial intelligence, database theory, programming languages, and compiler theory. Among the object-oriented systems presented - VBase (TDL and COP), statice; IRIS; ODE; C++;GemStone and OPAL; ONTOS; ORION; SIM.

Part I Object-oriented databases - the concepts: a guide to the OODB landscape; a perspective on object-oriented and semantic database models and systems; algorithmic and computational aspects of object-oriented schema design; conceptual database evolution through learning; the hypermodel benchmark for evaluating object-oriented databases; transition to object-oriented development - promoting a new paradigm. Part II Some real object-oriented databases: an overview of existing object-oriented database systems; and object-oriented database system to support an integrated programming environment; programming with VBase; abstract state and representation in VBase; object SQL; integrating an object server with other worlds. Part III Applications: the development of a framework for VLSI CAD; object-oriented geographical information system; using an object database to build integrated design environments. Part IV C++ and persistence: a quickstart introduction to C++; C++ and COP - a brief comparison; ODE (object database and environment) - the language and the data model; ONTOS - a persistent database for C++.
