Zusammenfassung:Abstract: "We present the design of ObjectGlobe, a distributed and open query processor. Today, data is published on the Internet via Web servers which have, if at all, very localized query processing capabilities. The goal of the ObjectGlobe project is to establish an open market place in which data and query processing capabilities can be distributed and used by any kind of Internet application. Furthermore, ObjectGlobe integrates cycle providers (i.e., machines) which carry out query processing operators. The overall picture is to make it possible to execute virtually any kind of query operator on any machine and any kind of data on the Internet. One of the main challenges in the design of such an open system is to ensure security. We discuss the ObjectGlobe security requirements, show how basic components such as the optimizer and runtime system need to be extended, and present the results of performance experiments that assess the additional cost for secure distributed query processing."
