Persistent Object Systems: Proceedings of the Sixth International Workshop on Persistent Object Systems, Tarascon, Provence, France, 5-9 September 1994

Overview

This volume contains papers presented at the Sixth International Workshop on Persistent Object Systems, held in Tarascon, Provence, France, from 5-9 September 1994. As in previous years, the workshop addressed the issue of how to support the implementation of very long-lived systems. Among the specific topics discussed were: how to build, maintain, and operate large persistent applications; how to measure and analyse existing systems in order to improve the quality of persistent software engineering; and how to present and provide a full range of object store functions, such as concurrency, transactions, and recovery. The resulting volume will provide essential reading for researchers and postgraduate students in software engineering and programming languages.
