Dynamic attributes in the multidatabase system MRPSM

Dynamic attributes are attributes that are instantly defined in a query and unknown to the database or view schemes. This concept provides new possibilities, especially for multidatabase users. We first discuss the general interest of the concept. Then we present the implementation of the corresponding functionality within the prototype relational multidatabase system MRDSM.
