More and more relational database systems for microcomputers are providing visual interfaces, such as query by example (QBE). At the same time, experimental studies are providing more support for the theory that the end users can perform better with the entity relationship (ER) model than with the r

We show that a form of divide and conquer recursion on sets, together with the relational algebra, expresses exactly the queries over ordered relational databases which are NC-computable. At a finer level, we relate k nested uses of recursion exactly to AC k , k 1. We also give corresponding results
In 1978 Bancilhon and Paredaens introduced a notion of completeness for relational database languages on instance-level. Their criterion was subsequently called BP-completeness. Since then, it was used frequently in the context of other database models. However, its application in the context of lan
The method of the canonical connection introduced by Maier and Ullman provides an optimal procedure for query processing in universal-relation databases. We present an algorithm for computing canonical connections in a database scheme which is more efficient than the classical algorithm based on tab
