Translation from SQL-R to SQL

My senior project deals with translation of an SQL dialect called "SQL-R" into standard SQL. SQL-R is SQL with the integrated concept of a reference in place of a more traditional Foreign Key concept. This allows a table's Foreign Key, which may span several columns, to be used as a reference (a pointer in C/C++ terminology) to refer to other tables in queries. This simplifies the WHERE clause of the queries as it makes many join conditions between tables virtually unnecessary.

The "System Documentation" document is a single version of all previous (and above) documents. It also contains some minor revisions made to previous documents.

Documents

All documents are available in OpenOffice format (.odt) and .pdf. No Word documents, use something else.

I own all of this, not you. lawlz
