We revisit the issue of the complexity of database queries, in the light of the recent parametric refinement of complexity theory. We show that, if the query size (or the number of variables in the query) is considered as a parameter, then the relational calculus and its fragments (conjunctive queri

We give lower bounds on the complexity of certain Datalog queries. Our notion of complexity applies to compile-time optimization techniques for Datalog; thus, our results indicate limitations of these techniques. The main new tool is linear first-order formulas, whose depth (respectively, number of
