Abstract
For an object database system in order to provide object versioning, the impact of the version model on the index management must be studied, since both indexed collections and objects in an indexed collection can be versioned. Based on a version model suitable for software engineering applications, we investigate the operations to be provided by the index management, and how they can be implemented in an efficient way.
This work was partly done while the author visited O2 Technology, Versailles, France. That stay was partially funded by the Gottlieb Daimler- und Karl Benz-Stiftung, Ladenburg, Germany under Grant 2.93.45.
