Objective
The objective of MUST was to establish the basis for the development of a new generation of database management systems (DBMS) with the following features:
-treatment of new data types (documents, images, sounds, time)
-use of inference techniques to ensure data integrity, deduce new data from recorded data, and help the user to set up his queries
-compatibility with existing DBMS through use of the SQL interface SQL.
The objective was to establish the basis for the development of a new generation of database management systems (DBMS) with the following features:
treatment of new data types (documents, images, sounds, time);
use of inference techniques to ensure data integrity, deduce new data from recorded data, and help the user to set up queries;
compatibility with existing DBMS through use of the structured query language (SQL) interface. During the first months of the project, a market survey identified the user requirements and the manufacturer perspectives for the next generation of DBMS. The concept of a resource dictionary was derived from work on new data types and on the refinement of a data dictionary. Experience of deductive components was gained by treating this topic separately from the rest of the work. A prototype of a natural language menu interface and a tentative mock up of a graphical interface were demonstrated.

The concept of a resource dictionary was derived from work on new data types (time, graphics, etc) and on the refinement of a data dictionary. Experience of deductive components was gained by treating this topic separately from the rest of the work.
A prototype of a natural language menu interface and a tentative mock-up of a graphical interface were demonstrated.
Exploitation
The impact of MUST on the compatibility of existing DBMS, the treatment of new data types and the inclusion of a deductive component will be exploited by the main contractor.
