Formal Definition of Mappings in a Data Base
Summary: Algebraic formalization of mappings between external views and the database, modeling the DB as an Object with state. Identifies consistency between deriving external views and translating operations, but misses interference in multi-user settings. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
