Updating Disjunctive Datbases via Model Trees

In this paper we study the problem of updating disjunctive databases, which contain indefinite data given as positive injunctive closes. We give correct algorithms for the insertion of a clause into and the deletion of a clause from such databases. Although the algorithms presented here are oriented towards model trees, they apply to any representation of minimal models. (Also cross-referenced as UMIACS-TR-95-11
