Abstract
This thesis explains the design of a relational data base management system. In an effort to achieve a system which is shared, on-line, easy to use, responsive, capable of growth, capable of change, and having extensive security facilities, many innovations have been introduced. All data needed for enterprise operation and DBMS operation are stored in data base relations; administrators are considered as users; and one language is given with facilities for defining data, declaring mappings, defining comprehensive security/integrity constraints, and declaring new DBMS operations. Finally, a primitive language is given, which allows for a practical implementation of these innovations with a result of increased overall system performance, greater flexibility, and use of modern micro-processor technology.
