An Approach to Object Sharing in Distributed Database Systems

Summary: Introduces DODM, a minimal model for defining, manipulating, and retrieving shared objects across distributed databases. Cross-boundary relationships, object relocation, and location-transparent naming enable semantically expressive distributed database designs. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
