Fundamentals of Information Systems contains articles from the 7th International Workshop on Foundations of Models and Languages for Data and Objects (FoMLaDO ' 98), which was held in Timmel, Germany. These articles capture various aspects of database and information systems theory:
- identification as a primitive of database models
- deontic action programs
- marked nulls in queries
- topological canonization in spatial databases
- complexity of search queries
- complexity of Web queries
- attribute grammars for structured document queries
- hybrid multi-level concurrency control
- efficient navigation in persistent object stores
- formal semantics of UML
- reengineering of object bases and integrity dependence
.
Fundamentals of Information Systems serves as an excellent reference, providing insight into some of the most challenging research issues in the field.
