ODBMS
An object database or object-oriented database is a database management system in which information is represented in the form of objects as used in object-oriented programming. Object databases are different from relational databases which are table-oriented. A third type, object–relational databases, is a hybrid of both approaches. Object databases have been considered since the early 1980s. Overview Object-oriented database management systems (OODBMSs) also called ODBMS (Object Database Management System) combine database capabilities with object-oriented programming language capabilities. OODBMSs allow object-oriented programmers to develop the product, store them as objects, and replicate or modify existing objects to make new objects within the OODBMS. Because the database is integrated with the programming language, the programmer can maintain consistency within one environment, in that both the OODBMS and the programming language will use the same model of representat ...

Object–relational Database
An object–relational database (ORD), or object–relational database management system (ORDBMS), is a database management system (DBMS) similar to a relational database, but with an object-oriented database model: objects, classes and inheritance are directly supported in database schemas and in the query language. Also, as with pure relational systems, it supports extension of the data model with custom data types and methods. An object–relational database can be said to provide a middle ground between relational databases and object-oriented databases. In object–relational databases, the approach is essentially that of relational databases: the data resides in the database and is manipulated collectively with queries in a query language; at the other extreme are OODBMSes in which the database is essentially a persistent object store for software written in an object-oriented programming language, with an application programming interface API for storing and retrievi ...

Database Management System
In computing, a database is an organized collection of data or a type of data store based on the use of a database management system (DBMS), the software that interacts with end users, applications, and the database itself to capture and analyze the data. The DBMS additionally encompasses the core facilities provided to administer the database. The sum total of the database, the DBMS and the associated applications can be referred to as a database system. Often the term "database" is also used loosely to refer to any of the DBMS, the database system or an application associated with the database. Before digital storage and retrieval of data have become widespread, index cards were used for data storage in a wide range of applications and environments: in the home to record and store recipes, shopping lists, contact information and other organizational data; in business to record presentation notes, project research and notes, and contact information; in schools as flash ca ...

Objectivity/DB
Objectivity/DB is a commercial object database produced by Objectivity, Inc. It allows applications to store standard C++, C#, Java, or Python objects persistently, without converting them into the rows and columns used by a relational database management system (RDBMS). Objectivity/DB supports popular object-oriented languages as well as SQL/ODBC and XML. It is compatible with Linux, Macintosh, UNIX and Windows platforms, facilitating interoperability across different languages and hardware environments. History Objectivity/DB was first introduced in 1990. The C++ and Java interfaces adhere to the ODMG'93 standard, with subsequent additions of C# and Python interfaces. Objectivity, Inc. ceased in late 2023. Architectural features Objectivity/DB operates as a distributed database, providing a unified logical view across a network of databases. It employs a distributed computing model where client applications transparently communicate with simplified servers processes. This ar ...

Relational Database
A relational database (RDB) is a database based on the relational model of data, as proposed by E. F. Codd in 1970. A Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) is a type of database management system that stores data in a structured format using rows and columns. Many relational database systems are equipped with the option of using SQL (Structured Query Language) for querying and updating the database. History The concept of relational database was defined by E. F. Codd at IBM in 1970. Codd introduced the term ''relational'' in his research paper "A Relational Model of Data for Large Shared Data Banks". In this paper and later papers, he defined what he meant by ''relation''. One well-known definition of what constitutes a relational database system is composed of Codd's 12 rules. However, no commercial implementations of the relational model conform to all of Codd's rules, so the term has gradually come to describe a broader class of database systems, which at a ...

JADE (programming Language)
JADE is a proprietary object-oriented software development and deployment platform product from the New Zealand-based Jade Software Corporation, first released in 1996. It consists of the JADE programming language, Integrated development environment and debugger, integrated application server and object database management system. Designed as an end-to-end development environment to allow systems to be coded in one language from the database server down to the client (computing), clients, it also provides APIs for other languages, including .NET Framework, Java (programming language), Java, C (programming language), C/C++ and Web services. Although a free limited licence is available for development, using the JADE platform requires per-process fees to be paid. Language In syntax, JADE is very similar to Pascal (programming language), Pascal; its syntax is based on the language Modula-2, which was derived from Pascal. While it includes innovations lacking in Pascal or Modula-2 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
Brown University
Brown University is a Private university, private Ivy League research university in Providence, Rhode Island, United States. It is the List of colonial colleges, seventh-oldest institution of higher education in the US, founded in 1764 as the ''College in the English Colony of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations''. One of nine colonial colleges chartered before the American Revolution, it was the first US college to codify that admission and instruction of students was to be equal regardless of the religious affiliation of students. The university is home to the oldest applied mathematics program in the country and oldest engineering program in the Ivy League. It was one of the early doctoral-granting institutions in the U.S., adding masters and doctoral studies in 1887. In 1969, it adopted its Open Curriculum (Brown University), Open Curriculum after student lobbying, which eliminated mandatory Curriculum#Core curriculum, general education distribution requirements.

Object-Oriented Model
Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a programming paradigm based on the concept of ''Object (computer science), objects''. Objects can contain data (called Field (computer science), fields, Attribute (computing), attributes or Property (programming), properties) and have actions they can perform (called Procedure (computer science), procedures or method (computing), methods and implemented in source-code, code). In OOP, computer programs are designed by making them out of objects that interact with one another. Many of the most widely used programming languages (such as C++, Java (programming language), Java, and Python (programming language), Python) support object-oriented programming to a greater or lesser degree, typically as part of multi-paradigm, multiple paradigms in combination with others such as imperative programming and declarative programming. Significant object-oriented languages include Ada (programming language), Ada, ActionScript, C++, Common Lisp, C Sharp (p ...
