The Description Logic for Relational Databases
Résumé
Description logics are widely used to express structured data and provide reasoning facility to query and integrate data from different databases. This paper presents a many-sorted description logic ${\cal MDL}$ to represent relational databases. We give a translation from relational databases to the description logic ${\cal MDL}$, and show this translation completely and faithfully captures the information in the relational database. Moreover, we show that some relational algebra operations could be expressed in ${\cal MDL}$.
