Universal Query Language

چکیده
In the prequel paper we introduced the Uni ed State Model (USM), i.e. a single model that allowed conveying objects of popular programming languages and databases. That model exploited and emphasized common properties of all these objects. We showed mappings between those popular data models and USM. Our natural next research goal is the Uni ed Query Language (UQL). UQL is intended to be a minimalistic and elegant query language that allows expressing queries of major query languages. We plan to build a concise set of operators and show its coverage for mentioned languages' constructs. In this paper we present our initial e orts towards UQL. We present a set of language operators. We also provide a number of redolent examples of queries expressed in UQL.

Deductive Database systems are designed based on a logical data model. Data (as opposed to Relational Databases Management System (RDBMS) in which data stored in tables) are saved as facts in a Deductive Database system. Datalog Educational System (DES) is a Deductive Database system that Datalog mode is the default mode in this system. It can extract data to use outer joins with three query la...
متن کاملExtending the TIGER query language with universal quantification
The query language in TIGERSearch is limited due to its lack of universal quantification. This restriction makes it impossible to make simple queries like “Find sentences that do not include a certain word”. We propose an easy way to formulate such queries. We have implemented this extension to the query language in a tool that allows querying parallel treebanks, while including their alignment...
متن کاملTwo-Dimensional Specification of Universal Quantification in a Graphical Database Query Language
We propose a technique for specifying universal quantification and existential quantification (combined with negation) in a two-dimensional (graphical) database query language. Unlike other approaches that provide set operators to simulate universal quantification, this technique allows a direct representation of universal quantification. We present syntactic constructs for specifying universal...
متن کاملImplementing a Universal Relation Frontend for SQL
For querying a universal relation system the user only has to specify the output attributes he is interested in and the conditions for these attributes; the universal relation system computes the relevant part of the database scheme with respect to the query, the query hypergraph, and subsequently relations and join conditions corresponding to the query hypergraph. We introduce a universal rela...
