Plan Databases: Model and Algebra

Despite the fact that thousands of applications manipulate plans, there has been no work to date on managing large databases of plans. In this paper, we first propose a formal model of plan databases. We describe important notions of consistency and coherence for such databases. We then propose a set of operators similar to the relational algebra to query such databases of plans.
