Abstract

This paper suggests an object-oriented query model. The model is algebraically-closed and supports a view mechanism. In the view mechanism, a view is simply defined as a named query expression, and queries issued against views can be translated into equivalent queries against databases by means of the query modification technique as used in relational database systems, and a view makes it possible for its user to see a subset of its base objects, a subset of the methods of its base objects, or new relationships created by combining two or more sets of its base objects.
