In this thesis, we describe the OBJECTIVE Benchmark for object-oriented ADBMSs, and present experimental results from its implementation in an active database system prototype. OBJECTIVE can be used to identify performance bottlenecks and active functionalities of an ADBMS, and compare the performance of multiple ADBMSs. The philosophy of OBJECTIVE is to isolate components providing active functionalities, and concentrate only on the performance of these components while attempting to minimize the effects of other factors.x, 71 leavesEnglishinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessActive database systemsobject-oriented database systemsdatabase benchmarksQA76.9.D3 C48 1996Object-oriented databases.Database design.Database management.Thesis
