Objetivo 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.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 (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.
