Abstract
This paper considers the problem of adding list as a type constructor toan object-oriented data model.
In particular, we are concerned with how lists in a database can be constructedand how they can be queried.
We propose that operators from a discrete, linear-time temporal logic provide anatural basis for making assertions about the ordering of elements in a list.
We then show how such assertions may be incorporated into a query algebra by extending the Melampus Data Model (MDM) with a list type constructor and by allowing temporal assertions as predicates on lists.
The extended algebra allows the expression of a significantly larger class of queries than previously possible.
Furthermore, temporal operators provide a basis for creating new lists that satisfy desired ordering properties.
For example, sorting is shown to fall out as a special case.
This paper also describes a new framework based on Boolean circuits for evaluating the truth of an assertion on a given list.
This framework provides many opportunities for optimization and parallelism, and it lends insight to the meaning and complexity of a temporal formula.
