The level of posts this week was high, making them generally a pleasure to read. Thanks. Here are some specific comments.
- Object Oriented Databases (OODBS) was the toughest category this week. Wkipedia has a pretty good description of them. What makes them unique and important is probably best understood in the section of that article headed ODBMS Characteristics and also in the section Comparison with RDBMSs
- Several of you came ups with interesting applications of DBs including one for integrating Geotech data from multiple firms (this should sound quite similar to COBie)
- Several of you forgot to turn in the URL to BbLearn. I found them and gave only a 5-point deduction, but make no promises to do so in future.
- Many of you only cited one other student’s work. I was lenient this week because of the generally high quality, but will not be so lenient in future.
