Languages for Multi-database Interoperability
Summary: SchemaLog: higher-order, logic-based language with first-order semantics; schema as first-class, enabling data/metadata queries. SchemaSQL: SQL extension for multi-database tasks; implemented with INGRES and a deductive engine for declarative interoperability across independent relational DBs.
