Constraint Checking with Partial Information

Summary: Techniques for assuring integrity constraints without full evaluation, exploiting three information regimes: constraints alone; constraints+updates; constraints+updates+local data. Characterizes cost vs. soundness/precision tradeoffs to enable incremental, distributed, lightweight checking. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
