System Ratings 



The ratings for each system reviewed are given in 

 table 2. All organizations are given a numbered code 

 for tabulation purposes. These numeric codes are refer- 

 enced to the organization name in table 3. Some orga- 

 nizations requested anonymity in any publications 

 based on the questionnaires. These organizations have 

 been designated "Organization A," etc., to protect their 

 identity. Whenever a 0, 0+, or 0- rating is given in the 

 table, a footnote describes the part of the criteria that 

 the system did not meet (see table 4 for the definitions 

 of these footnotes). An * in the table indicates that the 

 questionnaire response was insufficient to evaluate the 

 system for that particular DBMS feature.
