Abstract:

{rada, genesereth}cs. stanford. edu Abstract. Database reformulation is the process of rewriting the data and rules of a deductive database in a functionally equivalent manner. We focus on the problem of automatically reformulating a database in a way that reduces query processing time while satisfying strong storage space constraints. In previous work we have investigated database reformulation for the case of unary databases. In this paper we extend this work to arbitrary arity, while concentrating on databases with conjunctive rules. The main result of the paper is that the database reformulation problem is decidable for conjunctive databases.
