This paper proposes the
DJR
approach for implementing deductive object-oriented database systems(DOOD). This technique is based on classifying DOOD features into three abstract implementation levels. The classified features are then delegated to the
DJR suite
, which is built around the
Data Model, Java
and
Relational
components. The use of the Java virtual machine (JVM) provides essential object-oriented features that were hard to implement and maintain. The implementation of many critical database management features is delegated to the relational back-end. As a result, only a minimal implementation effort is needed to build a very complex system. The
DJR
approach was used to implement our DOOD system
UNIDOOR
. The system was successfully and rapidly built and it supports essential object-oriented features along with the major database management features which were hard to implement in previous DOOD prototypes.
