Abstract: . Database systems can be difficult to use. Part of the problem is that systems do not, for the most part, help a user when a query fails or fails to evaluate as the user expects. Schema and semantics of databases are often complex, and are rarely understood in entirety by the lay user. As a consequence, queries a lay user casts may not make sense with respect to a database's semantics. A system which returns informative responses beyond a query's answer set itself can elucidate the schema and... (Update)

.... are not human centered systems because of the necessity of users knowledge for database schemata and query language grammars [7] 10] [11]. Our approach adopts the combinations of only natural words stored in knowledge bases, including dictionaries, thesauruses and rule...

.... Work In addition to the work on Web query languages, work on query optimization based on database integrity constraints is also relevant [13, 9]. With regard to rule based query optimization, one can distinguish between application independent transformation rules and...
