  2. Database abstraction layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_abstraction_layer

    This is especially true for database abstraction layers that try to unify the query language as well like ODBC. Dependency: a database abstraction layer provides yet another functional dependency for a software system, i.e. a given database abstraction layer, like anything else, may eventually become obsolete, outmoded or unsupported.

  3. Synonym (database) - Wikipedia

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

    A private synonym is a synonym within a database schema that a developer typically uses to mask the true name of a table, view stored procedure, or other database object in an application schema. Private synonyms, unlike public synonyms, can be referenced only by the schema that owns the table or object.

  4. Dependency theory (database theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dependency_theory...

    Dependency theory is a subfield of database theory which studies implication and optimization problems related to logical constraints, commonly called dependencies, on databases. The best known class of such dependencies are functional dependencies , which form the foundation of keys on database relations .

  5. 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 ...

  6. Configuration management database - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Configuration_management...

    This database acts as a data warehouse for the organization and also stores information regarding the relationships among its assets. [2] The CMDB provides a means of understanding the organization's critical assets and their relationships, such as information systems, upstream sources or dependencies of assets, and the downstream targets of ...

  7. Functional dependency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_dependency

    A set S of functional dependencies is irreducible if the set has the following three properties: Each right set of a functional dependency of S contains only one attribute. Each left set of a functional dependency of S is irreducible. It means that reducing any one attribute from left set will change the content of S (S will lose some information).

  8. Thesaurus (information retrieval) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thesaurus_(information...

    A thesaurus is composed by at least three elements: 1-a list of words (or terms), 2-the relationship amongst the words (or terms), indicated by their hierarchical relative position (e.g. parent/broader term; child/narrower term, synonym, etc.), 3-a set of rules on how to use the thesaurus.

  9. Data dependency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_dependency

    A data dependency in computer science is a situation in which a program statement (instruction) refers to the data of a preceding statement. In compiler theory , the technique used to discover data dependencies among statements (or instructions) is called dependence analysis .
