Towards an Effective Calculus for Object Query Languages
Summary: Proposes an effectiveness standard for a database calculus—coverage, manipulability, and efficient evaluation—and introduces the monoid calculus for object-oriented queries (OQL/ODMG-93). Extends to vectors/arrays and supports aggregations, nested/type-constructor composition, identity, and updates. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
