Abstract

The new decade will witness the widespread usage of distributed processing systems. Distributed data base management will turn out to be one of the important applications of this relatively new technology. This paper initially presents a brief outline of the nature of research that has been performed so far in this area. Next, it discusses some of the important issues (like integrity and security constraints, deadlocks, concurrency control, etc.) and analyses some proposed mechanisms. Performance and correctness issues are also addressed. Then, a brief sketch of an adaptive architecture for distributed data base management systems is presented. The last section lists some future directions for research in this area.
