Title
The reuse and modification of rulebases by predicate substitution
Abstract
We propose a method for reusing and modifyinga deductive database. The need for such techniquesoccurs when new rulebased applicationsdiffer only slightly from existing ones or when anapplication is to be incrementally updated. Suchtechniques are particularly important when reprogrammingis expensive or unreliable. In orderto facilitate reuse we extend deductive databasesystems by the concept of predicate substitution.In this way, during query evaluation, not onlyvariables, but also...
