Description
These are the proceedings of the third International
conference on ExtendingDatabase Technology (EDBT) held in
Vienna in March 1992. The success of the 1988 and 1990
conferences held in Venice suggested that there is room for
a major international database conference in Europe every
two years,to serve as a forum for presentation of new
results in research, developmentand applications extending
the state of the art in database technology.
The 1992 EDBT conference has attracted a lot of interest.
This volume contains 33 papers selected from 220 papers
submitted by authors from more than 30 countries, including
invited papers by F. Bancilhon and R. Reiter.
The volume is organized into sections on: visual interfaces
and multimedia techniques, deductive databases, schema
updatability, object-oriented databases, updating in
deductive databases and knowledge bases, indexing
techniques, parallel processing, distributed databases,
knowledge bases, transaction processing, and query
processing.
