  2. Conjunctive query - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjunctive_Query

    For the special case of conjunctive queries in which all relations used are binary, this notion corresponds to the treewidth of the dependency graph of the variables in the query (i.e., the graph having the variables of the query as nodes and an undirected edge {,} between two variables if and only if there is an atomic formula (,) or (,) in ...

  3. Reverse index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_index

    In database management systems, a reverse key index strategy reverses the key value before entering it in the index. [1] E.g., the value 24538 becomes 83542 in the index. Reversing the key value is particularly useful for indexing data such as sequence numbers , where each new key value is greater than the prior value, i.e., values ...

  4. SQL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL

    SQL was initially developed at IBM by Donald D. Chamberlin and Raymond F. Boyce after learning about the relational model from Edgar F. Codd [12] in the early 1970s. [13] This version, initially called SEQUEL (Structured English Query Language), was designed to manipulate and retrieve data stored in IBM's original quasirelational database management system, System R, which a group at IBM San ...

  5. Scale factor (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_factor_(computer...

    A scale factor of 1 ⁄ 10 cannot be used here, because scaling 160 by 1 ⁄ 10 gives 16, which is greater than the greatest value that can be stored in this fixed-point format. However, 1 ⁄ 11 will work as a scale factor, because the maximum scaled value, 160 ⁄ 11 = 14. 54 , fits within this range.

  6. Logarithmic scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_scale

    Unlike a linear scale where each unit of distance corresponds to the same increment, on a logarithmic scale each unit of length is a multiple of some base value raised to a power, and corresponds to the multiplication of the previous value in the scale by the base value. In common use, logarithmic scales are in base 10 (unless otherwise specified).

  7. SQL syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_syntax

    NUMERIC(precision, scale) or DECIMAL(precision, scale) DECFLOAT(precision) For example, the number 123.45 has a precision of 5 and a scale of 2. The precision is a positive integer that determines the number of significant digits in a particular radix (binary or decimal). The scale is a non-negative integer. A scale of 0 indicates that the ...

  8. Hierarchical and recursive queries in SQL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_and_recursive...

    See MSDN documentation [2] or IBM documentation [13] [14] for tutorial examples. The RECURSIVE keyword is not usually needed after WITH in systems other than PostgreSQL. [15] In SQL:1999 a recursive (CTE) query may appear anywhere a query is allowed. It's possible, for example, to name the result using CREATE [RECURSIVE] VIEW. [16]

  9. Scale parameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_parameter

    In order to make the statistic a consistent estimator for the scale parameter, one must in general multiply the statistic by a constant scale factor. This scale factor is defined as the theoretical value of the value obtained by dividing the required scale parameter by the asymptotic value of the statistic. Note that the scale factor depends on ...
