identification as a primitive of database models
deontic action programs
marked nulls in queries
topological canonization in spatial databases
complexity of search queries
complexity of Web queries
attribute grammars for structured document queries
hybrid multi-level concurrency control
efficient navigation in persistent object stores
formal semantics of UML
reengineering of object bases and integrity dependence

.
Fundamentals of Information Systems serves as an excellent reference, providing insight into some of the most challenging research issues in the field.
