Abstract
The database system developed for the L3 experiment at the CERN large electron-positron (LEP) collider is described. The solution chosen has two components: a FORTRAN package (DBL3) and a system of distributed servers and data (L3DBSM). DBL3 provides basic database functions supplemented by facilities specific to high-energy physics experiments. The L3DBSM system, operational since the start of LEP data taking, has handled efficiently several hundred Mbytes of data over three different systems (VAX/VMS, IBM VM/CMS, Apollo Aegis SR10.x) and at eight different sites.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
