In the early 1970s Codd formalized databases in terms of the relational calculus and the relational algebra. A major influence on the use of logic in databases was the development of the field of logic programming. Logic provides a convenient formalism for studying classical database problems and has the important property of being declarative, that is, it allows one to express what she wants rather than how to get it. For a long time, relational calculus and algebra were considered the relational database languages. However, there are simple operations, such as computing the transitive closure of a graph, which cannot be expressed with these languages. Datalog is a declarative query language for relational databases based on the logic programming paradigm. One of the peculiarities that distinguishes Datalog from query languages like relational algebra and calculus is recursion, which gives Datalog the capability to express queries like computing a graph transitive closure. Recent years have witnessed a revival of interest in Datalog in a variety of emerging application domains such as data integration, information extraction | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-01854-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-00726-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-01854-1Series ISSN 2153-5418 Series E-ISSN 2153-5426 | issn_series | 2153-5418 | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2016 |
