Abstract :
A short introduction to the important aspects of the PRISMA DBMS (database management system) and to the notation and terminology used is presented. It is shown how integrity constraints formulated in terms of global relations can be translated into a fragmented form. The strategy for constraint enforcement at a conceptual level is discussed. The implementation issues for this strategy are discussed
