Presentation / Conference Contribution
Unwalla, M., & Kerridge, J. (1992, July). Control of a large massively parallel database machine using SQL catalogue extensions, and a DSDL in preference to an operating system. Presented at Advanced Database Systems: 10th British National Conference on Databases, BNCOD 10, Aberdeen, Scotland

The IDIOMS parallel database machine supports large applications where integrated OLTP and MIS is required. It can be considered a relational engine, and SQL is used as the MIS query language. We make some comparisons between IDIOMS and other databas...
