Abstract

We define a new property of steady behavior of dynamic deductive data bases interacting with their active medium. This property is in fact the homeostaticity, i.e. the ability of the database to restore its integrity constraints after ruinous disturbances of its medium. The formal model we use is based on a new concept, that of bounded disturbance of an active medium. We explore the computational complexity of this property in various classes of dynamic deductive data bases.
