Haskell’s type system with multi-parameter constructor classes and functional dependencies allows static (compile-time) computations to be expressed by logic programming on the ...
We introduce a new normal form, called essential tuple normal form (ETNF), for relations in a relational database where the constraints are given by functional dependencies and jo...
We present a novel approach to automatically reformulating constraints defined as tables of allowed assignments to variables. Constraints of this form are common in a variety of se...
We assume that safety of information stored in a database depends on the reliability of the agents who have performed the insertions in the database. We present a logic S to repres...
