Database machines and parallel database systems are becoming a viable alternative for handling transactions on voluminous databases especially with the declining cost of hardware. Database research has spawned a variety of parallel processing architectures to improve the performance of database machines. However, many of these architectures are based upon unique hardware configurations and technologies including processor-per-track, processor-per- head, and off-the-disk designs. Alternative backend database system which will be utilized for processing transactions on voluminous databases. The complete performance analysis and design of RRDS is currently being carried out by a Ph. D. student at the University of Central Florida. RRDS supports the relational data model and consists of multiple processors running replicated copies of the database management system (DBMS) software on a partitioned database. The general hardware organization is composed of a controller and a collection of replicated computers which can be implemented as microcomputers or minicomputers. Keywords: *Host simulator programs.
