摘要
In this paper, we introduce a query language for evolving information systems. Evolving information systems go beyond the capacity of conventional database systems, not only as they incorporate a time dimension, but also since they allow all aspects of the system to evolve. The introduced language is related to the philosophy underlying NIAM (Natural language Information Analysis Method). This method investigates the grammar of the communication in the Universe of Discourse. Usually this grammar is depicted as an information structure diagram (NIAM or ER schema). This paper describes the language Elisa-D, which is based on this grammar. As a result, expressions in this language have a direct meaning in the universe of discourse, while natural language expressions are easily formalised in this language.
