Abstract
This survey describes the conceptual framework behind the DASDBS and COSMOS projects. COSMOS is the current research program of the database research group at ETH Zurich. These activities are a natural follow-on of DASDBS, the Darmstadt Database System project at the Technical University of Darmstadt. While most emphasis in DASDBS was on a database kernelsystem, the project at ETH focuses on the cooperation between a database system and its environment. The environment consists of clients asking for database service and other systems offering service to the database system. The research objective is the exploration of the architecture of a COoperative System for the Management of ObjectS (COSMOS). In short, we are on the way “from the kernel to the cosmos”.
