30. In the original Linda systems, the fields were restricted to primitive types such as integer and string, and aggregates such as structures and arrays. Several modern systems, including ours, eliminate this restriction.
31. In fact, by attaching a Structured Query Language (SQL) front end to T Spaces, we could create a Java-based SQL database engine.
