|The paper proposes a general architecture for implementing temporal integrity constraints by compiling them into a set of active DBMS rules. The modularity of the design allows easy adaptation to diierent environments. Both diierences in the speciication languages and in the target rule systems can be easily accommodated. The advantages of this architecture are demonstrated on a particular tem...
