X Abstract

We present an architecture and a set of challenges for peer database management systems. These systems team up to build a network of nodes (peers) that coordinate at run time most of the typical DBMS tasks such as the querying, updating, and sharing of data. Such a network works in a way similar to conventional multidatabases. Conventional multidatabase systems are founded on key concepts such as those of a global schema, central administrative authority, data integration, global access to multiple databases, permanent participation of databases, etc. Instead, our proposal assumes total absence of any central authority or control, no global schema, transient participation of peer databases, and constantly evolving coordination rules among databases. In this work, we describe the status of the Hyperion project, present our current solutions, and outline remaining research issues.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
