The Continued Design and Implementation of a Relational Database System.

Abstract

The Roth Relational Database System is a database system designed and implemented for teaching and research purposes at the Air Force Institute of Technology. During this thesis effort, an investigation into the design and implementation of the Roth Relational Database System is made in order to continue the design and implementation of the AFIT Relational Database System. Additional research was done to assess the feasibility of suggestions made by Roth concerning the continued development of the system. Specifically, an investigation was made concerning Theo Haerder's access structure and an investigation was made concerning the interface between the editor and the low level access mechanism. With this research accomplished, a top down structured design was completed for the edit functions and the low level access structure. Once this was accomplished an algorithm was developed, implemented and tested for the insertion and deletion of values into a B-tree. (Author)
