Abstract
In order to achieve acceptable performance in enhanced
DBMS different kinds of parallelism have to be enabled by
appropriate implementation capabilities. The Remote Cooperation
System (RCS) offers these capabilities. It is the
basic communication system of our enhanced DBMS called
PRIMA. In this paper we present different implementations
for RCS and an analysis of their performance behavior. In
order to get a better assessment of these implementations,
we compare our measurements to those obtained with conventional
remote procedure call facilities offered by operating systems.
The results demonstrate that RCS is suitable
for supporting parallel query execution.
