本研究之主要目標在於建構一個能評估分散式關聯資料庫中之特色的需求導向績效評估方法。在過去的績效評估研究中，已經有許多人對於關聯式資料庫績效評估做了多方面的努力。但是，過去的關聯式資料庫資效評估方法如：Wisconsin、AS3AP、TPC系列的Benchmarks都有著一些限制及不足的地方。

過去的關聯式資料庫績效評估方法並無法完全的評估出分散式資料庫的特殊需求及其表現。所以本研究嘗試要建立出一個能專門適用於分散式資料庫導向的績效評估方法。為了要作出此績效評估方法，本研究採用了工作量模式的研究方法。先建出分散式資料庫績效評估的工作量模式，再以其來實作出績效評估方法。工作量模式分成三部分：資料模式、交易模式、控制模式。

This thesis is intended to design a requirements-centric database benchmark, which can evaluate the general performance of the distributed relational database systems. In the past, there are many relational database benchmarks. But the relational database benchmarks like Wisconsin, AS3AP, TPC, TP1 have some constraints.

In this study, we aim to design a general-purpose distributed database workload model and implement it. To design this benchmark, we need to build our workload model. The workload model consists of three components：data model, transaction model, control model. Each model has the requirement specification language to accommodate user's workloads.
