Abstract
We believe that the greatest growth potential for soft real-time databases is not as isolated monolithic databases but as components in open systems consisting of many heterogenous databases. In such environments, the flexibility to deal with unpredictable situations and the ability to cooperate with other databases (often non-real-time databases) is just as important as the guarantee of stringent timing constraints. In this paper, we describe a database designed explicitly for heterogeneous environments, the STanford Real-time Information Processor (STRIP). STRIP, which runs on standard Posix Unix, is a soft real-time main memory database with special facilities for importing and exporting data as well as handling derived data. We will describe the architecture of STRIP, its unique features, and its potential uses in overall system architectures.Keywords
