Recent work on client-server data-shipping OODBs has demonstratedthe usefulnessof localdatacachingat clientsites. In addition to data caching, index caching can provide substantia...
A graphical formalized language is proposed for specifying systems of views over database schemas. The language is based on the notion of arrow (mapping) between data schemas and ...
