Abstract

Formal database semantics has concentrated on dependency constraints, such as functional and multivalued dependencies, and on normal forms for relations. Unfortunately much of this work has been inaccessible to researchers outside this field, due to theunfamiliar formalism in which the work is couched. This study introduces the main issues and theorems of formal database semantics and clarifies the terminology of the field.
