ERQ: Controlled Inference and Instruction Techniques for DBMS Query Languages
Summary: ERQ: a DBMS query interface with progressive user modes to teach ER and relational models and aid query formulation. Novelty: Controlled Inference in query construction derives limited ER model inferences and returns NL explanations to validate specs. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
