Abstract

We present a basis for efficiently evaluating the situation (event and condition) portion of situation/action rules. either in an active database or in a standalone situation monitor. A common framework handles situations involving both database changes and nondatabase situations. We introduce DELTARelations to represent net changes to a stored or derived relation. We define an operator that computes DeltaRelations for derived relations. Evaluation of expressions involving changes is optimized by defining incremental forms of relational operators and by providing a chain rule that extends incremental computation to data derived by arbitrary expressions.
