Abstract
Many of the lessons that can be learned from earlier chapters relate to details and are embedded in contexts from which they should be extracted only with care. Thus, this chapter does not attempt to present general conclusions, but rather to summarize the principal achievements in the area of active databases, and to identify areas in which further effort is required.
