Abstract: Object-oriented databases (OODBs) are in many ways a better match for scientific data management than conventional record-oriented database systems. User-defined datatypes reduce the encoding going from a scientific domain to the database. Direct support for complex objects is useful for capturing hierarchical structures, such as molecules. OODBs generally have collection types, such as lists and arrays, that are a better basis than sets for the dimensional data common in scientific... (Update)

...by [13] in the context of parallel computations. A number of proposals for object oriented query languages include arrays, see [22, 9]. The ODMG proposal includes one dimensional arrays with a limited set of supported operations [8] Vandenberg and DeWitt propose an...

.... is better suited to expressing data complexity than the relational model, and its value to scientific data analysis is a frequent theme [CM95, MH94, Kim90b] But object oriented databases have been seen as poor performers when handling very large data bases ( Rao94] p.43) 2...
