Title: Implementation of a hypercube database system

Abstract

This year, as we predicted in our grant renewal proposal, can be fairly called one of implementation''. A great many low-level modules that are needed for any database system, together with functional implementations of various syntactic constructs of ADAMS were coded and tested. Moreover, these were integrated into three basic system components: the language preprocessor, the persistent dictionary, and the run-time system, to create a complete working database system. Representative application programs using persistent ADAMS elements have been written and executed using the system. To be sure, not all of the components work as effectively as we would like. And we have not attained the level of parallelism that we had expected. Because of this we have embarked on a fundamental redesign of the run-time system and some of its component servers as are described in later sections. 25 refs.
