Abstract
Current database management system technology is unable to provide adequate support for Nomadic Computing. Mobile applications require systems which are sufficiently lightweight and customisable to provide high performance while consuming minimal power, yet extensible enough to adapt to a constantly changing environment. Current DBMS architectures do not provide this level of customization or adaptability. In this paper we introduce Component-Based Database Management Systems (CBDMS) and discuss their suitability for mobile computing.
