  • Abstract
    LINDA, an experimental system for database access in heterogeneous environments, is discussed. The goal is to achieve maximum site autonomy and as much database access homogenization as possible. The problems to be solved are discussed, and design priorities are justified. Major heterogeneity problems are sketched, and the applied techniques are briefly described. An overview of the implementation of the system is given, and the system´s applicability is discussed
