Concepts for a Database System Compiler
Summary: Uses a simple formalism—parameterized types plus a rule-based algebra—to declaratively specify DBMS storage structures and algorithms, encoding implementations as equations. Enables automatic synthesis of a functioning DBMS in minutes, aiming for a "database compiler-compiler" to replace massive manual engineering. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
