Surely
the real strength of Pick, Unidata et al. is not so much the mv fields (which
can be relatively easily emulated using array types) but the data dictionaries
and the way the same field can be defined in multiple ways (data formats) with
different names, or that you can c
Dear Team,
I'm wide open to other ideas for the support of
robotic vision through tools already built into PostGreSQL. But you've
already admitted to certain speed limitations...and robotic vision is going to
require much more intense processing power. An MVD might allow the data

Dear Team,
I've read your comments. No, I don't think
that MVD's are the best thing since sliced breadbut they do have a certain
"simplicity" that seems to hold the key to high speed analysis of large volumes
of streaming data from the "eyes" of a robot. This stream of data must be

For those who aren't familiar with PICK, it is an untyped database

Dear Team,
I have been monitoring this list for quite some

internet research on the subject of "multi valued" database theory. I know
that this is the basis for the "Pick" database system, FileMaker Pro, "D3", and
