Download or read book Object Oriented Database Systems Approaches and Architectures written by Prabhu C.s.r. and published by PHI Learning Pvt. Ltd.. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This well-received book, now in its third edition, is a comprehensive presentation of the fundamentals of object-oriented database systems (OODBMS). It provides extensive coverage of the different approaches to object data management, including the three major approaches--semantic database systems approach, object-oriented programming language extension approach, and the relational extension approach--as well as the various types of architectures of object-oriented database systems. The book discusses all recent developments in this field, such as the emergence of Java as the dominant object-oriented programming language--resulting in upcoming OODBMS products such as Ozone--and the provision of object-oriented database features in object-relational database systems (ORDBMS) products such as Oracle 9i and DB2. The new edition provides an extensive discussion of PostgreSQL, a popular open source object-oriented database system which has emerged as a viable alternative to expensive commercial database systems such as Oracle. The book is extensively illustrated, which enables students to develop a firm grasp of the underlying concepts. The chapter-end exercises help in testing the students' comprehension of the fundamental principles. The book is primarily meant for students of IT-related programmes having courses in database systems. Computer professionals will also find the book immensely useful.

Download or read book Upgrading Relational Databases with Objects written by Robert Vermeulen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-12-13 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upgrading Relational Databases with Objects presents a clear-headed overview of how to use object-oriented (OO) technology to improve existing relational databases. This practical how-to guide starts with the basics of OO and works its way up to examples and what-if scenarios that illustrate how OO technology is, should be and should not be integrated with relational databases. It draws a keen distinction between applications that can be best performed with each technology. The book describes such object technologies as OLE and CORBA and what their impacts will be on relational database connectivity and provides a brief tutorial on relational and object concepts, it then moves on to advanced object/relational, SQL3, OO database technology and the Internet.

This book was released on 2013-11-09 with total page 523 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Object-oriented database management systems (OODBMSs) have generated significant excitement in the database community in the last decade. This interest stems from a real need for data management support for what are called "advanced application areas" that are not well-served by relational technology. The case for object-oriented technology has been made on three fronts. First is the data modeling requirements of the new applications. Some of the more important shortcomings of the relational systems in meeting the requirements of these applications include: 1. Relational systems deal with a single object type: a relation. A relation is used to model different real-world objects, but the semantics of this association is not part of the database. Furthermore, the attributes of a relation may come only from simple and fixed data type domains (numeric, character, and, sometimes, date types). Advanced applications require explicit storage and manipulation of more abstract types (e.g., images, design documents) and the ability for the users to define their own application-specific types. Therefore, a rich type system supporting user defined abstract types is required. 2. The relational model structures data in a relatively simple and flat manner. Non traditional applications require more complex object structures with nested objects (e.g., a vehicle object containing an engine object).

Download or read book Object oriented Databases with Applications to CASE Networks and VLSI CAD written by Rajiv Gupta and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Object-oriented' has become one of the important buzzwords in computer science, but as yet there is no clear consensus on 'what' is object-oriented programming. This book addresses the concepts behind the buzzword, and has four goals. The first is to provide the reader with a perspective on concepts that have been in development in a diverse set of fields, including artificial intelligence, database theory, programming languages, and compiler theory which form the core of the object paradigm. Second, the text presents an overview of object-oriented databases, examples of their use, and a comparison of strengths and weaknesses. Third, real-world examples are shown to illustrate how they are mapped onto an object-oriented framework. Finally, the programming language C++ has been adopted by programmers of object-oriented databases, so there is an overview of its power and limitations, and two different approaches to making a database out of C++ are examined.
