Transactions in Relational Databases (Preliminary Report)
Summary: Characterizes equivalence and optimization of relational update transactions, yielding polynomial-time decision and normalization algorithms. Introduces graphical and axiomatic equivalence proofs, multiple optimality criteria, and the well-behaved 2-acyclic subclass. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
