What is Temporal Data and the Relational Model : a Detailed Investigation Into the Application of Interval and Relation Theory to the Problem of Temporal Database Management about?
<p><br>Temporal database systems are systems that provide special support for storing, querying, and updating historical and/or future data. Current DBMSs provide essentially no temporal features at all, but this situation is likely to change soon for a variety of reasons; in fact, temporal databases are virtually certain to become important sooner rather than later, in the commercial world as well as in academia. This book provides an in-depth description of the foundations and principles on which those temporal DBMSs will be built. These foundations and principles are firmly rooted in the relational model of data; thus, they represent an evolutionary step, not a revolutionary one, and they will stand the test of time.<br><br>This book is arranged in three parts and a set of appendixes:<br><br>* Preliminaries: Provides a detailed review of the relational model, and an overview of the Tutorial D language.<br>* Laying the Foundations: Explains basic temporal data problems and introduces fundamental constructs and operators for addressing those problems.<br>* Building on the Foundations: Applies the material of the previous part to issues of temporal database design, temporal constra
