Persistent Data/Knowledge Base
Abstract
The Persistent Data/Knowledge Base (PDKB) project is a research effort funded by Rome Laboratory and conducted at the Computer Science Laboratory of SRI International. The main goal of this effort was to design/ develop persistent object storage techniques capable of handling multiple data objects in a distributed information processing environment. The objective of this effort was to perform an investigation and evaluation and to develop and verify a top level system/segment design specification for a persistent object- oriented data/knowledge base system using techniques for (1) reliable and efficient access to data/Knowledge bases, (2) increased programmer/user productivity, and (3) integrated hyper-media data types. Techniques that were investigated include AI/DB workstations, object representation including multimedia databases, temporal change management, persistent object storage media, spatial databases, and massive memory data/knowledge systems. The contribution is a highly intelligent technique for managing very large main memory or traditional secondary storage domains in a multimedia information system environment.
