Preface Annals of Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence 7 (1993) MFDBS Conferences and this volume This volume contains selected papers of the 1989 and 1991 Symposia on Mathematical Fundamentals of Database and Knowledge Base Systems (MFDBS). The conferences were covering new developments in theoretical aspects of database and knowledge-base systems and the design of databases and knowledge bases. Topics of the conferences were: database and knowledge base models; deductive database and knowledge base systems; logical, algebraic and combinatorial fundamentals of database theory and design of databases; object-oriented databases and object- oriented modelling; fundamentals of query languages, transaction processing, distributed databases, concurrency control, access strategies, recovery, security, privacy, safety; fundamentals for integrity constraints and consistency in databases; models for database machines; models for user interfaces; design and implementation of non- standard databases. The MFDBS conference series was founded in Eastern Europe at the time of the cold war and the iron curtain. It was not, for most of the first participants, possible to travel to the west; even contact was difficult. At the same time, there was a need to establish better and direct lines of communication to the database community in the west. A great deal of research was performed in http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Annals of Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence Springer Journals
