Infoplex Data Base Computer Architecture Concepts and Directions: August 25, 1978 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Explore a modular, hierarchical approach to a large information management system.
This book discusses INFOPLEX, a memory-focused architecture that aims for high performance, large capacity, and strong reliability. It explains how dividing functions and memory into layers helps manage complex databases and data management tasks.
Readers will see how hierarchical decomposition guides both software structure and hardware design. The material covers techniques for identifying modules, modeling requirements, and deriving a practical, scalable architecture using multiple microprocessors. The discussion also addresses memory hierarchy, inter-processor protocols, and reliability considerations in a parallel, decentralized system.
- How functional and memory decompositions shape scalable system design
- How the Systematic Design Methodology (SDM) is used to derive a functional hierarchy
- Strategies for memory hierarchy, locality of reference, and automatic data movement
- Approaches to reliability, performance evaluation, and inter-processor communication
Ideal for engineers and students of database systems, computer architecture, and information management who want a practical view of large-scale system design.
