Advances in temporal databases make it more and more more straightforward to shop time-dependent info, making a want for amenities that might aid end-users entry this data. within the context of traditional language interplay, major attempt has been dedicated to interfaces that let database queries to be formulated in common language. lots of the current interfaces, even though, don't help correctly the idea of time. Drawing upon annoying and element theories, temporal logics, and temporal databases, this cross-discipline e-book examines appropriate concerns from the 3 parts, constructing a unified theoretical framework that may be used to construct normal language interfaces to temporal databases. The framework gains an HPSG mapping from English to a officially outlined that means illustration language, and a corresponding mapping to a temporal extension of the SQL database language. The booklet is followed by way of a freely on hand prototype interface, equipped in accordance with the framework, and applied utilizing Prolog and ALE. this is often the 1st in-depth exploration of the proposal of time in average language database interfaces. it will likely be fairly attention-grabbing to researchers engaged on traditional language interplay, stressful and element, HPSG, temporal logics, and temporal databases, specifically those that desire to find out about time-related matters in different disciplines.
