Abstract

Entirely programmed in EQUEL, AIM consists of a batch component for periodic integrity control and an interactive component which provides an instantaneous semantic control mechanism at the user interface. For certain simple updates AIM implements a prevention strategy, whereas, in particular for transactions, a detection and recovery strategy is observed, Both static and dynamic integrity constraints may be specified on the basis of QUEL qualifications. Integrity constraints are stored in a separate integrity constraint base which consists of ordinary UNIX files. The AIM concept and the embedded approach by Stonebraker are largely complementary.
