Object-Oriented Databases and Their Applications to Software Engineering (The McGraw-Hill international series in software engineering) - Tapa blanda

This text provides the latest information in object-oriented database technology. Examining some of the important systems produced so far and discussing likely issues for the future, the text presents concepts in a clear and logical plan that falls into four steps: an overview of problem areas that traditional databases cannot handle; an introduction to the concepts of object-oriented systems in general; and an in-depth look at how these principles have been embodied in object-oriented databases. The work is intended as an advanced undergraduate text, the postgraduate student in search of a reliable sourcebook, or the professional in the database or software engineering field.
