These are the proceedings of the third International
conference on ExtendingDatabase Technology (EDBT) held in

conferences held in Venice suggested that there is room for
a major international database conference in Europe every
two years,to serve as a forum for presentation of new
results in research, developmentand applications extending
the state of the art in database technology.
The 1992 EDBT conference has attracted a lot of interest.
This volume contains 33 papers selected from 220 papers
submitted by authors from more than 30 countries, including
