2. Relational model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relational_model

   The relational model (RM) is an approach to managing data using a structure and language consistent with first-order predicate logic, first described in 1969 by English computer scientist Edgar F. Codd, [1] [2] where all data is represented in terms of tuples, grouped into relations.

3. Database model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_model

   The relational model was introduced by E.F. Codd in 1970 [2] as a way to make database management systems more independent of any particular application. It is a mathematical model defined in terms of predicate logic and set theory, and implementations of it have been used by mainframe, midrange and microcomputer systems.

4. Database theory - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_theory

   Database theory encapsulates a broad range of topics related to the study and research of the theoretical realm of databases and database management systems.. Theoretical aspects of data management include, among other areas, the foundations of query languages, computational complexity and expressive power of queries, finite model theory, database design theory, dependency theory, foundations ...

5. Codd's 12 rules - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codd's_12_rules

   Codd's twelve rules [1] are a set of thirteen rules (numbered zero to twelve) proposed by Edgar F. Codd, a pioneer of the relational model for databases, designed to define what is required from a database management system in order for it to be considered relational, i.e., a relational database management system (RDBMS).

6. Database schema - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_schema

   The database schema is the structure of a database described in a formal language supported typically by a relational database management system (RDBMS). The term " schema " refers to the organization of data as a blueprint of how the database is constructed (divided into database tables in the case of relational databases ).

7. Relational database - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relational_database

   A relational database (RDB [1]) is a database based on the relational model of data, as proposed by E. F. Codd in 1970. [2]A database management system used to maintain relational databases is a relational database management system (RDBMS).

8. Codd's theorem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codd's_theorem

   Codd's theorem states that relational algebra and the domain-independent relational calculus queries, two well-known foundational query languages for the relational model, are precisely equivalent in expressive power. That is, a database query can be formulated in one language if and only if it can be expressed in the other.

9. Relation (database) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relation_(database)

   [5] [6] A relational database definition (database schema, sometimes referred to as a relational schema) can thus be thought of as a collection of named relation schemas. [7] [8] In implementations, the domain of each attribute is effectively a data type [9] and a named relation schema is effectively a relation variable (relvar for short).
