An important characteristic of these systems is the clear separation of logic and control. However, the programmer cannot affect the control part of a deductive database system. To eliminate this deficiency, this monograph presents a so-called expert deductive database system that allows explicit control of the deduction process. The system consists of an object-level describing the logical aspects of a problem and of a meta-level that contains application-specific control information affecting the object-level deduction process. For example, object-level rules can be disregarded, and some tuples deduced at the object-level can be preferred to others. Besides the architecture of this system, the book also identifies some important possibilities of deduction control which are explained by characteristic examples. 410 0$aLecture Notes in Computer Science,$x0302-9743 ;$v479 606 $aData structures (Computer science) 606 $aDatabase management 606 $aArtificial intelligence 606 $aData Structures and Information Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I15009 606 $aDatabase Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I18024 606 $aArtificial Intelligence$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I21000 615 0$aData structures (Computer science). 615 0$aDatabase management. 615 0$aArtificial intelligence. 615 14$aData Structures and Information Theory. 615 24$aDatabase Management. 615 24$aArtificial Intelligence. 676 $a005.74 700 $aSchmidt$b Helmut$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0496341 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996465384303316 996 $aMeta-Level control for deductive database systems$91501925 997 $aUNISA
