Abstract
We develop a framework for (real) constraint databases based on finite
precision arithmetic which fulfills the main requirements of practical
constraint databases. First, it allows the manipulation of approximate
values, standard in scientific applications. More importantly, it permits
the extension of the relational calculus with aggregate functions, while
preserving the fundamental property of closed evaluation with PTIME data
complexity. This is an important step since the initial model of
[KKR90] cannot be extended to aggregate
functions. Moreover, finite precision computation plays a central role in
efficient query processing. We introduce the finite precision semantics of
queries and prove expressive power results concerning it. We then present
a new constraint query language, CACLF, which includes
aggregate and analytical functions, and show that it admits a closed
form evaluation in PTIME.
