Abstract

Queries to relational databases may be formulated in a class of non-procedural query languages based on Predicate Calculus. Using a wide spectrum language, procedures are introduced which express these Predicate Calculus formulations. Program transformation schemes are then utilized to develop correct, quantifier-free programs.
