@inproceedings{Abiteboul1987COLAL, title={COL: A Logic-Based Language for Complex Objects}, author={S. Abiteboul and S. Grumbach}, booktitle={DBPL}, year={1987} }
A logic-based language for manipulating complex objects constructed using set and tuple constructors is introduced. A key feature of the language is the use of base and derived data functions. Under some stratification restrictions, the semantics of programs is given by a canonical minimal and causal model that can be computed using a finite sequence of fixpoints. Applications of the language to procedural data, semantic database models, heterogeneous databases integration, and datalog query… CONTINUE READING
