Peer reviewedYannakoudakis, Emmanuel J.; Attar-Bashi, Hussain A. – Journal of Documentation, 1989
Describes a model that displays structures necessary to map between the conceptual and external levels in database management systems, using an algorithm that maps the syntactic representations of tuples onto semantic representations. A technique for translating tuples into natural language sentences is introduced, and a system implemented in…

Peer reviewedDas-Gupta, Padmini – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1987
Presents an algorithm for use in natural language document retrieval systems which automatically determines if the conjunction "and" in a statement representing an information need should be translated into a Boolean "and" or "or." The results of an experiment that used the algorithm are reported, and further research is suggested. (CLB)
