Parallel Database Systems in the 1990's

Summary: Panel on 1990s parallel DBs; faster CPUs, slower disks, RAID role. Compares shared-everything, shared-nothing, and shared-disk; probes I/O parallelism and effects of textual, image, video, and spatial data on scalable DBs; guides research directions.
