As some new computer applications, such as computer-aided design, multimedia systems, and knowledge-based systems, require more complex data structures, the traditional database system seems to be unable to support these new requirements. A recently developed database technology, object-oriented database, provides a solution to these problems.The purpose of this thesis is to investigate what is object-oriented database, especially in its internal organization such as object persistency. Two object-oriented database systems, EXODUS and ODE, are discussed in detail. In addition, a comparison between the relational databases and object-oriented databases is made. / Department of Computer Science
