Abstract

Relational database systems are attracting interest from users outside the commercial areas for which such systems were initially designed. This paper describes a surrogate model for engineering data (CAD, VLSI, geographical data, etc.) which allows the user to define structural relationships among semantically related data. A binding mechanism between system-controlled surrogates and user-defined keys avoids the introduction of two independent identifier concepts. Finally, an implicit join with two built-in functions can be used to query and manipulate structured data in an efficient and flexible way.
