In this paper dense families of database relations are introduced. We characterize dependencies and keys of relation instances in terms of dense families. Key functions are also in...
Haskell’s type system with multi-parameter constructor classes and functional dependencies allows static (compile-time) computations to be expressed by logic programming on the ...
Abstract. We present a categorical denotational semantics for a database mapping, based on views, in the most general framework of a database integration/exchange. Developed databa...
