Re: databases and operating systems

Sorry for the topic if if is off, but there are more uses for databases than
just in PCs.  I don't mean writing an OS explicitly using/for databases
(like PalmOS), but rather, what features would better support modern
databases.

databases and operating systems

2001-04-19 Thread Ben Garvey

Hello, my name is Ben Garvey and I'm doing a research paper on whether
operating systems should be rewritten to offer more support for databases.

What type of operating system features could benefit database implementors?

Thank you in advance.
