A Sound and Complete Query Evaluation Algorithm for Relational Databases with Disjunctive Information (Extended Abstract)
Summary: Sound and complete query-evaluation algorithm for relational DBs with disjunctive facts, leveraging Reiter's theory and an extended-relations algebra. Introduces normal forms to support arbitrary queries including negation, lifting prior restrictions and enabling RDBMS integration. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
