Expressiveness and Complexity of Order Dependencies
Summary: Characterizes a hierarchy of order dependencies (ODs) and UODs tied to SQL lexicographic ordering. Establishes coNP-completeness of general inference, but tractable FD inference from UODs and polynomial restricted-domain UOD reasoning, with query-optimization applications.
