Distributed Data Bases -An Advanced Course Distributed Data Bases introduce new Problems and exacerbate others which are well known in nondistributed contexts. As many future data base implementations will be of the distributed type, I.W. Draffan and F. Poole of Sheffield Polytechnic (UK), identified a need -for a comprehensive review of this increasingly important subject. In this context they organized an Advanced Course on Distributed Data Bases, held at Sheffield City Polytechnic in 1979. The course was sponsored by the Science Research Council in the UK and by the lnformatics Training Group of CREST in Europe. This event brought together a number of distinguished speakers and research workers from Europe, the UK a id the USA, as well as 80 participants drawn from business, commercial, industrial and academic institutions in the countries of the European Economic Community. The course focussed on the problems associated with the set-up and administration of distributed data base systems, with the needs of organizations and with the deeper technical issues.
