چکیده
Constraints define the world we live in. Database systems manage data about a domain of interest in our world. Hence, effective data management requires data to satisfy the constraints that define the domain of interest. In practice, most database systems adopt the industry standard for managing data, i.e. the Structured Query Language (SQL). In theory, constraints have mostly been investigated in Ted Codd’s Turing Award winning model of relations. This model entertains constraints on only very special instances of SQL data. In general, constraints on SQL data have been ignored. This distinct disparity between database theory and practice restrains the effectiveness of data management. Using algorithm engineering, discrete mathematics, logic and complexity theory we will establish a robust theory of constraints on SQL data. We will identify classes of constraints that can both: express fundamental properties of SQL data and be maintained efficiently by database systems. Utilizing these insights we will unleash original techniques for requirement acquisition, database design, and data processing. Our findings enable data engineers to effectively manage not just the structure but also the semantics of their domain of interest. Thus, we will establish a foundation for constraints that advances any data-intensive society, including New Zealand. 3. SUMMARY Standard Contact PI's Surname Initials Application Number Panel

A project proposal is the first step to us to get funding from anywhere. You need to write a proposal to your advisor, your university, your company, your city, state, governmental agencies (USGS, USDA, NSF, NASA, NOAA, DoEd, DOE, ....) for any funding opportunity. A proposal for a small amount of fund is usually 5 pages; for a standard and multi-year proposal to governmental agencies, it is us...

We offer a UK-based commentary on the recent “Perspective” published in IJHPM by Thakkar and Sullivan. We are sympathetic to the authors’ call for increased funding for health service and policy research (HSPR). However, we point out that increasing that investment – in any of the three countries they compare: Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom– will ipso facto not necessarily lea...

متن کاملSoundcheck for SQL
The lion's share of datalog features have been incorporated into the SQL3 standard proposal. However, most SQL manuals still recommend to implement user-de ned conditions for data integrity nondeclaratively, by triggers or stored procedures. We describe how to implement known declarative database technology for integrity checking in SQL databases. We show how to represent and evaluate arbitrari...
متن کاملDetermining Cost - Effective Configurations for Data - intensive Workloads in the Cloud
The promise of “infinite” resources given by the cloud computing paradigm has led to recent interest in exploiting clouds for large-scale data-intensive computing. Given this supposedly infinite resource set, we need a management function that regulates application workloads on these resources. This doctoral research focuses on two aspects of workload management, namely provisioning and mapping...
