  • Data Definition Language (Ddl)
    DATA DEFINITION LANGUAGE (DDL) CREATE CREATE SCHEMA AUTHORISATION Authentication: process the DBMS uses to verify that only registered users access the database - If using an enterprise RDBMS, you must be authenticated by the RDBMS - To be authenticated, you must log on to the RDBMS using an ID and password created by the database administrator - Every user ID is associated with a database schema Schema: a logical group of database objects that are related to each other - A schema belongs to a single user or application - A single database can hold multiple schemas that belong to different users or applications - Enforce a level of security by allowing each user to only see the tables that belong to them Syntax: CREATE SCHEMA AUTHORIZATION {creator}; - Command must be issued by the user who owns the schema o Eg. If you log on as JONES, you can only use CREATE SCHEMA AUTHORIZATION JONES; CREATE TABLE Syntax: CREATE TABLE table_name ( column1 data type [constraint], column2 data type [constraint], PRIMARY KEY(column1, column2), FOREIGN KEY(column2) REFERENCES table_name2; ); CREATE TABLE AS You can create a new table based on selected columns and rows of an existing table. The new table will copy the attribute names, data characteristics and rows of the original table. Example of creating a new table from components of another table: CREATE TABLE project AS SELECT emp_proj_code AS proj_code emp_proj_name AS proj_name emp_proj_desc AS proj_description emp_proj_date AS proj_start_date emp_proj_man AS proj_manager FROM employee; 3 CONSTRAINTS There are 2 types of constraints: - Column constraint – created with the column definition o Applies to a single column o Syntactically clearer and more meaningful o Can be expressed as a table constraint - Table constraint – created when you use the CONTRAINT keyword o Can apply to multiple columns in a table o Can be given a meaningful name and therefore modified by referencing its name o Cannot be expressed as a column constraint NOT NULL This constraint can only be a column constraint and cannot be named.

  • A Dictionary of DBMS Terms
    A Dictionary of DBMS Terms Access Plan Access plans are generated by the optimization component to implement queries submitted by users. ACID Properties ACID properties are transaction properties supported by DBMSs. ACID is an acronym for atomic, consistent, isolated, and durable. Address A location in memory where data are stored and can be retrieved. Aggregation Aggregation is the process of compiling information on an object, thereby abstracting a higher-level object. Aggregate Function A function that produces a single result based on the contents of an entire set of table rows. Alias Alias refers to the process of renaming a record. It is alternative name used for an attribute. 700 A Dictionary of DBMS Terms Anomaly The inconsistency that may result when a user attempts to update a table that contains redundant data. ANSI American National Standards Institute, one of the groups responsible for SQL standards.

ARIES ARIES is a recovery algorithm used by the recovery manager which is invoked after a crash. Armstrong’s Axioms Set of inference rules based on set of axioms that permit the algebraic mani- pulation of dependencies. Armstrong’s axioms enable the discovery of minimal cover of a set of functional dependencies. Associative Entity Type A weak entity type that depends on two or more entity types for its primary key.

Although researchers have proposed many Data integration, information ecosystems, shadows, meanings, different approaches, and software vendors have designed tools to mental entity, semantic heterogeneity, tags, help the data integration task, it remains an art relying on human labors. Due to lacks of a comprehensive theory to guide the overall modeling process, the quality of the integrated data heavily depends on the data integrators’ experiences. 1.

  • Datalog on Infinite Structures
    Datalog on Infinite Structures DISSERTATION zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades doctor rerum naturalium (Dr. rer. nat.) im Fach Informatik eingereicht an der Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakultät II Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin von Herr Dipl.-Math. Goetz Schwandtner geboren am 10.09.1976 in Mainz Präsident der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin: Prof. Dr. Christoph Markschies Dekan der Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakultät II: Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Coy Gutachter: 1. Prof. Dr. Martin Grohe 2. Prof. Dr. Nicole Schweikardt 3. Prof. Dr. Thomas Schwentick Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 24. Oktober 2008 Abstract Datalog is the relational variant of logic programming and has become a standard query language in database theory. The (program) complexity of datalog in its main context so far, on finite databases, is well known to be in EXPTIME. We research the complexity of datalog on infinite databases, motivated by possible applications of datalog to infinite structures (e.g. linear orders) in temporal and spatial reasoning on one hand and the upcoming interest in infinite structures in problems related to datalog, like constraint satisfaction problems: Unlike datalog on finite databases, on infinite structures the computations may take infinitely long, leading to the undecidability of datalog on some infinite struc- tures. But even in the decidable cases datalog on infinite structures may have ar- bitrarily high complexity, and because of this result, we research some structures with the lowest complexity of datalog on infinite structures: Datalog on linear orders (also dense or discrete, with and without constants, even colored) and tree orders has EXPTIME-complete complexity. To achieve the upper bound on these structures, we introduce a tool set specialized for datalog on orders: Order types, distance types and type disjoint programs.

An atom is a formula of the form R(t1, ::: , tn) with R a predicate symbol (or relation) of arity n, and t1, ::: , tn terms. Definition 11.2: A Datalog rule is an expression of the form: H B1 ^ ::: ^ Bm where H and B1, ::: , Bm are atoms. H is called the head or conclusion; B1 ^ ::: ^ Bm is called the body or premise. A rule with empty body (m = 0) is called a fact. A ground rule is one without variables (i.e., all terms are constants).

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract In this thesis, we extend the relational data model to incorporate partial orderings into data domains and present a comprehensive formalisation of the extended model. The main contributions of the thesis are that we show how and why such an extension can considerably improve the capabilities of capturing semantics in a wide spectrum of advanced applications such as tree-structured information, temporal information, in­ complete information, fuzzy information and spatial information, whilst preserving the elegance of the theoretical basis of the model. Within the extended model, we extend the relational algebra to the Partially Or­ dered Relational Algebra (FORA) and the relational calculus to the Partially Ordered Relational Calculus (PORC), respectively.
