  abstract = {The development and evaluation of a tuple set manager (TSM) based
  on multikey index data structures is a main part of the PARABASE project at
  the University of Vienna. The TSM provides access to parallel mass storage
  systems using tuple sets instead of conventional files as the central data
  structure for application programs. A proof-of-concept prototype TSM is
  already implemented and operational on an iPSC/2. It supports tuple insert
  and delete operations as well as exact match, partial match, and range
  queries at system call level. Available results are from this prototype on
  the one hand and from various performance evaluation figures. The evaluation
  results demonstrate the performance gain achieved by the implementation of
  the tuple set management concept on a parallel mass storage system.}
