What You Always Wanted to Know About Datalog (And Never Dared to Ask) (1989)

Abstract: Datalog is a database query language based on the logic programming paradigm; it has been designed and intensively studied over the last five years. We present the syntax and semantics of Datalog and its use for querying a relational database. Then, we classify optimization methods for achieving efficient evaluations of Datalog queries, and present the most relevant methods. Finally, we discuss various exhancements of Datalog, currently under study, and indicate what is still needed …

Datalog and Recursive Query Processing (2012)

Abstract: In recent years, we have witnessed a revival of the use of recursive queries in a variety of emerging application domains such as data in- tegration and exchange, information extraction, networking, and pro- gram analysis. A popular language used for expressing these queries is Datalog. This paper surveys for a general audience the Datalog lan- guage, recursive query processing, and optimization techniques. This survey differs from prior surveys written in the eighties and nineties i…

Interleaving Anomalies in Collaborative Text Editors (2019)

Abstract: Collaborative text editors allow two or more users to concurrently edit a shared document without merge conflicts. Such systems require an algorithm to provide convergence, ensuring all clients that have seen the same set of document edits are in the same state. Unfortunately convergence alone does not guarantee that a collaborative text editor is usable. Several published algorithms for collaborative text editing exhibit an undesirable anomaly in which concurrently inserted p…
