Abstract

The future of computer aided design is in object oriented programming. If the database community hopes to participate in this future, it must reexamine some basic assumptions about the architecture of database systems. Database system functionality can be added to object systems but if the performance cost is too high, it will never survive. Below are some suggestions for what can be done at a reasonable performance cost.
