ABSTRACT
We are currently designing a class modification methodology for GemStone. We describe the current status of the design. We choose from two basic approaches and then introduce those aspects of GemStone necessary for an understanding of the paper. After defining a set of invariants for GemStone databases, we discuss specific class modification operations in terms of maintaining these invariants. We next discuss several issues that impact class modification. These issues include concurrency and authorization, and lead to difficult choices.

Integrity Assurance for Outsourced Databases without DBMS Modification
DBSec 2014: Proceedings of the 28th Annual IFIP WG 11.3 Working Conference on Data and Applications Security and Privacy XXVIII - Volume 8566Database outsourcing has become increasingly popular as a cost-effective solution to provide database services to clients. Previous work proposed different approaches to ensuring data integrity, one of the most important security concerns in database ...
Preserving Aggregation in an Object-Relational DBMS
ADVIS '02: Proceedings of the Second International Conference on Advances in Information SystemsAggregation is an important concept in database design where composite objects can be modelled during the design of database applications. Therefore, preserving the aggregation concept in database implementation is essential. In this paper, we propose ...
