The Set Model offers several advantages over the relational model, closing the semantic gap between high-level languages and database query languages, and lending itself well to parallel or distributed processing of information. The author provides a tutorial guide to IS and database concepts, evaluating the Set Model in contrast to the relational model; gives examples of the application of the model to database design, including distributed databases; and includes an introduction to the Starset language, contrasted with object-oriented approaches.
