Abstract

Database management in engineering fields is becoming extremely important. A number of reports and papers have been published on this subject and computer-aided design applications. It is important to know state-of-the-art to fully utilize the benefits of this new field. The paper contains a survey of literature on database management for engineering applications. The survey is broadly classified into database management concepts and systems. Research work of various authors in related areas such as database design methodology, data models, data definition and manipulation languages, database integrity and consistency are reviewed. Various database management systems (15 in all) currently in use are reviewed and their features tabulated. Capabilities and usefulness of these systems are provide important developments in data management field to the engineering community. Also, it should be useful to those currently engaged in research on the subject.
