Relational Lenses: A Language for Updatable Views
Summary: Introduces Relational Lenses: a bi-directional query language where each expression serves both as a view definition and as an update policy, built from standard relational operators. A type system with record-level predicates and functional dependencies guarantees policies are well‑behaved and total, resolving the classical view‑update ambiguity.
