Viewers: A Data-World Analogue of Procedure Calls
Summary: Introduces viewers: reference-valued data whose targets virtually substitute their occurrence, a data-world analogue of procedure calls. Uses them to unify inheritance, stored selections, projections/joins, and multiple hierarchical views, with formal semantics and query-language integration.
