This edited volume describes current attempts to understand and to develop database programming languages. Earlier efforts to combine database and programming-language technologies involved coupling one system with another (such as SQL embedded in C) or combining functionalities in one system (as in Pascal R). The most recent work, on which this book focuses, develops integrated systems from a new, integrated technology. It shows, for example, how large knowledge-based systems, using this new technology, provide a uniform way of programming, storing, and managing data.Bancilhon, Francois is the author of 'Database Programming Languages', published 1990 under ISBN 9780201502572 and ISBN 0201502577.
