Applying an update method to a set of receivers (extended abstract)

Summary: Introduce schema annotations ('colorings') to analyze set-oriented application of object-database update methods and characterize which colorings guarantee order-independent outcomes. Establish undecidability for relational-algebraic methods, decidability for positive expressions, and compare the sequential model to an alternative parallel application strategy.
