A Database Interface for File Update

Summary: Updates over file-stored data via a high-level database update language using structuring schemas that expose a DB view over files. Proposes inverse mappings, shows that materialize-and-unparse is inefficient and lossy, and offers schema constraints plus algorithms to propagate updates without full reconstruction.
