Inheritance and Persistence in Database Programming Languages
Summary: Argues for separating type, extent, and persistence in DB programming languages to derive inheritance from type hierarchies. Proposes a generic type to select all objects of a type, and analyzes object- and type-level inheritance with persistence in relational DBs. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
