Two years ago, I came across the hypermodel benchmark of Arne Berre,
T. Lougenia Anderson and Moira Mallison for non-standard database
management systems. In my opinion it's the best benchmark I have
heard of for CAD-, hypertext- and software-engineering-DBMS. But up
to now I have only found two two year old articles containing descriptions
of hypermodel benchmark evaluations for

GemStone (Servio Logic),
Vbase 1.0 (Ontologic),
PCTE V10.4 (Emeraude).

I'm looking for

* other proposals of non-standard database system benchmarks
(with exception of the Cattell-benchmark)
* any new hypermodel benchmark results for the above mentioned
systems or any other kind of (non-standard/object-oriented) DBMS.

Thank you very much for any responses to this question,

Unfortunately, I know of no further hypermodel benchmark results that have
been performed and made available. We are trying to get the Hypermodel
benchmark coded up as a measure of our object store prototype, but it has many
tests, etc., and takes considerable effort to build. As for additional
benchmarks, I know of none except the distributed (client-server) benchmark
presented at the 1990 VLDB conference (citation below). Pelase post (or email
me) if you find anything more .... Eliot Moss
