Abstract
We describe a network schema design algorithm
that uses a well-designed relational schema as
input. The resulting network database handles
incomplete information, since we use only the modified
foreign-key constraint and not the universal
instance assumption. We believe that the representative
instance is a correct representation of
information stored in the database. We show how to
map the representative instance to the network
database. We give two algorithms for translating a
relational query to a network application program.
The first algorithm is confined to relational
queries that express selections and projections
over the universal relation scheme. The second
algorithm includes all relational queries over
select, project and (natural) join. Optimization
techniques are discussed for both types of translation.
