An Approach to Behavior Sharing in Federated Database Systems

An approach and mechanismto support the sharing of behavior amongthe component database systems in a federation is described. In the context of a functional object-based database model, a technique to support intercomponent behavior as well as inter-component information unit sharing is presented. An experimental implementation of the behavior sharing mechanism and algorithms is examined, and its practical utility and effectiveness are assessed. This work is couched in the framework of the Remote-Exchange research project and experimental system.
