The Semantics of the Geographical Database Query Languages

نویسنده

  • M. MAINGUENAUD
چکیده

In this paper, we analyze the various philosophies to define a query language for geographical database. The differences among the three possibilities of extending the SQL language rely on the definition of the clause Select: (1) the clause Select does not accept a spatial operator and the Where clause accepts one (or several) predicate defined between attributes; (2) the clause Select accepts one (or several) spatial operator(s) with attributes as arguments; (3) the clause Select accepts one (or several) spatial operator(s) with attributes or other spatial operators as arguments. To guarantee a coherent result of a query, we present the requirements of these three philosophies.

Lexical Semantics and Selection of TAM in Bantu Languages: A Case of Semantic Classification of Kiswahili Verbs

The existing literature on Bantu verbal semantics demonstrated that inherent semantic content of verbs pairs directly with the selection of tense, aspect and modality formatives in Bantu languages like Chasu, Lucazi, Lusamia, and Shiyeyi. Thus, the gist of this paper is the articulation of semantic classification of verbs in Kiswahili based on the selection of TAM types. This is because the sem...

Database Models for Innnite and Indeenite Temporal Information

Representation and querying of temporal information can beneet from the integration of techniques from constraint databases, database models for indeenite information and reasoning about temporal constraints. With this perspective in mind, we present a hierarchy of temporal data models: temporal relations, generalized temporal relations and temporal tables. We study the semantics of these model...

Condensative Stream Query Language for Data Streams

In contrast to traditional database queries, a query on stream data is continuous in that it is periodically evaluated over fractions (sliding windows) of the data stream. This introduces challenges beyond those encountered when processing traditional queries. Over a traditional DBMS (Database Management System), the answer to an aggregate query is usually much smaller than the answer to a simi...
