Abstract

We present a calculus TRL of typed relations introduced in [MO04] which is intended to be a formal tool both for representing relational databases [Cod70] and also for reasoning with them. Typed relations are heterogeneous relations, i.e., the objects related with a relation may range over different domains. Three features of this calculus distinguish it from the calculus of ordinary relations in the Tarski-style.
