Abstract

1. introduce the basic concepts of heterogeneous multidatabase systems and identify major research problems in the area;
2. discuss various approaches to the problem of developing applications in a multidatabase environment; and
3. review the current implementation efforts, discuss the current tendencies and future directions.

• Issues: Distribution, Heterogeneity, and Autonomy
• Alternatives: Inteoperability, Integration, and Interdependency
• Reference Schema and System architectures
• Semantic Heteorgeneity
• Schema analysis, interdependency, and integration
• System support for multisystem applications
• Processing of Multidatabase Queries
• Transaction issues in multidatabases
