Research in Functionally Distributed Computer Systems Development. Volume XVIII. Language Specification for a Distributed Data Base Management System.
Abstract
This document is a proposal for a distributed data base management system (DDBMS). It represents the first phase of the DDBMS design portion of Grant 108. It is very important to note that this document is a proposal and also that the next phase of the design is the development of the functional specifications of the DDBMS. Therefore, it is essential that all interested parties respond with any corrections, additions, deletions, suggestions, etc. by July 1, 1976. As it can easily be observed from this report, the implementation of the complete DDBMS will be an enormous task. Estimates range from 7 to 20 up to 50 person years of effort. A natural course is to design a full scale system and proceed with the implementation in an incremental manner. The implementation of a minimal prototype should be achieved as soon as possible for purposes of feasibility studies, testing, and morale.
