Datastores for Relaxed Objects

Publication at Faculty of Mathematics and Physics |

Abstract

In nowadays programming languages objects are usually strictly classified to predefined classes. Each class defines both the data structure as well as its interface, that describes its behaviour.

This approach might not be optimal for dynamically changing heterogenous and/or temporal environments. In those cases the available information about individual instances vary and there can exist either less or more anformation than it was supposed.

This contribution extends the proposed model of Relaxed Objects. Objects in this model belongs to classes according to their actual data content and its availability.

Such a model allows usage of maximal available functionality on currently available data. This article presents principles basic principles of the storage, extended by temporality and the concept of advanced storage model.

Implementation uses ORDBMS Oracle.
