from "Choosing a Data Model and Query Language for Provenance"

GOOD (Graph Oriented Object Database), like StruQL, is primarily concerned with transforming graphs. It provides five transformation operations to apply independently to a input graph to obtain the desired output graph. Beyond simple forms, these transformations are applied procedurally rather than declaratively. It also does not support paths. These properties make it not suitable for provenance.

X Abstract

A graph-oriented object database model (GOOD) is introduced as a theoretical basis for database systems in which manipulation as well as conceptual representation of data is transparently graph-based. In the GOOD model, the scheme as well as the instance of an object database is represented by a graph, and the data manipulation is expressed by graph transformations. These graph transformations are described using five basic operations and a method construct, all with a natural semantics. The basic operations add and delete objects and edges in function of the matchings of a pattern. The expressiveness of the model in terms of object-oriented modeling and data manipulation power is investigated. Index terms: Database models, query languages, graph transformations, objectoriented databases, user interfaces. Preliminary versions of this paper were presented at the 9th ACM Symposium on Principles of Database Systems [16] and the 1990 ACM SIGMOD International Conference on Management of D...
