<< That is because this is a field which patiently awaits its time. I would rather discuss this, rather than importance (or lack of thereof) of nulls.>> Agreed. Codd never limited the scope of enhancement of RM. Many of his writing open new areas of research and my guess is that the maturity time of RM will witness mathematics and concepts we are barely grasping today.
I am currently preparing a paper related to Physical Data Independence and what it may mean mathematically, this research led among other things to a possible definition of the negative relations. Received on Tue Feb 17 2015 - 00:41:27 CET
