Null (SQL) - Analysis of SQL Null Missing-value Semantics

Analysis of SQL Null Missing-value Semantics

The groundbreaking work of T. Imielinski and W. Lipski (1984) provided a framework in which to evaluate the intended semantics of various proposals to implement missing-value semantics. This section roughly follows chapter 19 the "Alice" textbook. A similar presentation appears in the review of Ron van der Meyden, ยง10.4.

Famous quotes containing the words analysis of, analysis and/or null:

    Cubism had been an analysis of the object and an attempt to put it before us in its totality; both as analysis and as synthesis, it was a criticism of appearance. Surrealism transmuted the object, and suddenly a canvas became an apparition: a new figuration, a real transfiguration.
    Octavio Paz (b. 1914)

    The spider-mind acquires a faculty of memory, and, with it, a singular skill of analysis and synthesis, taking apart and putting together in different relations the meshes of its trap. Man had in the beginning no power of analysis or synthesis approaching that of the spider, or even of the honey-bee; but he had acute sensibility to the higher forces.
    Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    A strong person makes the law and custom null before his own will.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
