Abstract

Irrelevant updates in a database are updates to source data that do not affect a view defined over the source data. Self-maintainable updates are ones for which the view can be updated, without having to access source data, when the source data from which the view is derived is updated. In this paper we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for an update to be irrelevant or self-maintainable when the source data is a graph and the view is defined to be the transitive closure of the graph. © 2003 Elsevier B.V.
