Database programming is the process of developing data-intensive applications which demand the access tolarge amounts of structured, persistent data. The primary tool required for implementing such applications is a database programming language, namely a formal language which is specialized in the definition and manipulation of relevant large-scale data. As such, a database programming language is expected to provide high-level data modeling capabilities as well as a variety of constructs which facilitate the handling of the specified data .
In this perspective, the aim of this book is: (i) to present the recent advances in database technology from the viewpoint of the novel database paradigms proposed for the development of advanced, non-standard, data-intensive applications, (ii) to focus specifically on the relational approach, with considerable emphasis on the extensions proposed in the last decade, and (iii) to describe the extended relational database language Algres which is primarily the outcome of research work conducted by the authors in cooperation with a large number of other colleagues and students.
