Описание: Abstract:

In this thesis we present Voltaire, an ontological programming language designed specifically to manipulate large volumes of heterogeneous data. It is a set-oriented, imperative database programming language, yet functional in nature. The set expressions in the language are conducive to data intensive programming while maintaining a certain amount of efficiency by espousing the imperative paradigm. The language and its semantics are defined in a modular but additive fashion, which facilitates some measure of bootstrapping. We further argue that such an implementation model is desirable, since it provides a single execution model for evaluating queries, satisfying constraints and computing functions.

The system provides automatic integrity enforcement in a lazy evaluation mode. Functions are effectively computed as the result of integrity enforcement. This is because we consider constraints as a sequence of commands to be evaluated or satisfied in the specified order. There are no arbitrary restrictions on the persistence of values--even functions can have a persistent extent. Further, the query language incorporates functions by providing access to the persistent extent of the function or by allowing an actual function call. The compiler can exploit traditional algebraic techniques for query optimization.

The data definition (or data type) facility is similar to what might be found in most semantic data models and is conducive to sharing heterogeneous records. We have defined a type algebra that incorporates type, extent and behavior by providing an extensional semantics for the behavior. We also attempt to define a denotational semantics for the Voltaire language and environment.

We believe Voltaire is an ideal language for data intensive programming, and contains the best features of a typed programming language and a database system.

Описание: This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING

Описание: Zadig ou la Destin e (Zadig, or The Book of Fate; 1747) is a novella and work of philosophical fiction by the Enlightenment writer Voltaire. It tells the story of Zadig, a philosopher in ancient Babylonia. The author does not attempt any historical accuracy, and some of the problems Zadig faces are thinly disguised references to social and political problems of Voltaire's own day. It was originally published as Memnon in Amsterdam (with a false imprint of London given) and first issued under its more familiar title in 1748. The book makes use of the Persian tale The Three Princes of Serendip. It is philosophical in nature, and presents human life as in the hands of a destiny beyond human control.

Описание: Also known as the Lettres anglaises ou philosophiques, Voltaire's response to his exile in England offered the French public of 1734 a panoramic view of British culture. Perceiving them as a veiled attack against the ancient regime, however, the French government ordered the letters burned and Voltaire persecuted.
