On the correctness of a Prolog-based federated database

نویسنده

چکیده

Federated databases are useful in data integration, because they can provide data from other databases, without physically merging that data. Prolog-based federated databases are based on predicate logic and use the Prolog system to generate results for queries. In this paper we constructed two formal criterions that express that such a Prolog-based federated database is correct. We distinguish between strong correctness and weak correctness, for which we both provided a criterion. Furthermore, the criterions are based on a formal representation of the Prolog-based federated database in conjunction with a non-Prolog based federated database.

A Trust Based Probabilistic Method for Efficient Correctness Verification in Database Outsourcing

Correctness verification of query results is a significant challenge in database outsourcing. Most of the proposed approaches impose high overhead, which makes them impractical in real scenarios. Probabilistic approaches are proposed in order to reduce the computation overhead pertaining to the verification process. In this paper, we use the notion of trust as the basis of our probabilistic app...

Extending the Qualitative Trajectory Calculus Based on the Concept of Accessibility of Moving Objects in the Paths

Qualitative spatial representation and reasoning are among the important capabilities in intelligent geospatial information system development. Although a large contribution to the study of moving objects has been attributed to the quantitative use and analysis of data, such calculations are ineffective when there is little inaccurate data on position and geometry or when explicitly explaining ...

Pathway and Protein Interaction Data: from XML to FDM Database

This paper describes our experience with the first steps towards integrating pathway and protein interaction data with other data sets within the framework of a federated database system based on the functional data model. We have made use of DTD and XML files produced by the BIND project. The DTD provides a specification for information about biomolecular interactions, complexes and pathways, ...

Development of a Combined System Based on Data Mining and Semantic Web for the Diagnosis of Autism

Introduction: Autism is a nervous system disorder, and since there is no direct diagnosis for it, data mining can help diagnose the disease. Ontology as a backbone of the semantic web, a knowledge database with shareability and reusability, can be a confirmation of the correctness of disease diagnosis systems. This study aimed to provide a system for diagnosing autistic children with a combinat...
