<H2>Research Activities</H2>
The group associated with the Laboratory for Database Systems Research 
are involved in a number of research activities including the development 
of distributed object-oriented database systems, deductive databases,
distributed database management, the application of neural networks to
database problems, and the development of databases to support
software engineering activities. The ongoing projects are the following:
