- This chapter originated as part of
- <a class="xref" href="biblio.html#SIM98" title="Enhancement of the ANSI SQL Implementation of PostgreSQL">[sim98]</a>, Stefan Simkovics'
- Master's Thesis prepared at Vienna University of Technology under the direction
- of O.Univ.Prof.Dr. Georg Gottlob and Univ.Ass. Mag. Katrin Seyr.

- This chapter gives an overview of the internal structure of the
- backend of <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span>. After having
- read the following sections you should have an idea of how a query
- is processed. This chapter does not aim to provide a detailed
- description of the internal operation of
- <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span>, as such a document would be
- very extensive. Rather, this chapter is intended to help the reader
- understand the general sequence of operations that occur within the
- backend from the point at which a query is received, to the point
- at which the results are returned to the client.
