<p>This master thesis presents PORDaS, the Peer-to-peer Object Relational Database System. It is a continuation of work done in a project of fall 2005, where the foundation for the thesis was laid down. The focus of the work is on distributed query processing between autonomous databases in a structured peer-to-peer network. A great deal of effort has gone into compiling the theoretical foundation for the project, which served as a basis for assessing alternative approaches to introducing a query processor in a peer-to-peer database. The old PORDaS version was extended to include a simplified, pipelined query processor capable of joining tables. The query processor had two different execution strategies, the first was performing join operators at the requesting node and the second was performing join operators parallel among the nodes participating in the query. Experiments which ran PORDaS on a cluster of 36 computers showed that there are room for improvements even though the system was able to perform all the tests.</p>
