使用点到点查询的交互式查询公式化

Interactive Query Formulation using Point to Point Queries

Henderik Alex Proper

摘要:

在具有大型概念模式的数据库中,有效的信息披露是一个重要的问题。特别是制定特设查询是在这种情况下的一个主要问题。解决这个问题的现有方法包括图形查询界面,查询导航,查询的建设。在这篇文章中,我们提出了点到点的查询机制,可以结合现有的机制到一个前所未有的计算机支持的查询制定机制。在点对点查询中,构建了通过信息结构的路径。然后可以使用此路径来制定更复杂的查询。当用户知道某些与其信息需求相关的对象类型,但(尚未)知道它们在概念模式中如何相关时,点对点查询通常很有用。因此,点对点查询机制的一部分是在概念模式中选择对象类型(点)之间的最合适路径。本文讨论了点到点查询机制所涉及的一些语用问题,以及在所选对象类型之间寻找相关路径所涉及的理论问题。

英文摘要:

Effective information disclosure in the context of databases with a large conceptual schema is known to be a non-trivial problem. In particular the formulation of ad-hoc queries is a major problem in such contexts. Existing approaches for tackling this problem include graphical query interfaces, query by navigation, and query by construction. In this article we propose the point to point query mechanism that can be combined with the existing mechanism into an unprecedented computer supported query formulation mechanism. In a point to point query a path through the information structure is build. This path can then be used to formulate more complex queries. A point to point query is typically useful when users know some object types which are relevant for their information need, but do not (yet) know how they are related in the conceptual schema. Part of the point to point query mechanism is therefore the selection of the most appropriate path between object types (points) in the conceptual schema. This article both discusses some of the pragmatic issues involved in the point to point query mechanism, and the theoretical issues involved in finding the relevant paths between selected object types.
