UNIBASE - An Integrated Access to Databases

The concept of the integrated database system based on database logic is presented. The idea of an integrated database system may be used to deal with several database structures: hierarchical, network, relational, etc , applying one common data model. In the presented approach the relational model is established as a common view of different databases. The following parts of an integrated database system are described: (2) a generalized schema of an integrated database schema and a formula language used for the definition of query, assertion, constraint, and transformation rules.
