A Logical Spreadsheet Management System

Abstract

Separate operators of the relational algebra were implemented in the spreadsheets. The ability to express relational queries and the users of spreadsheets can perform relational data transformations in the spreadsheet itself. End users can still work in the vanilla spreadsheet, benefit from its features like data analysis and visualization, while the complex formulas are generated by a tool that allows to express them in a better suited high-level language and avoids errors. Either they are not yet ready to migrate to a database, or they do not want to migrate at all. They can define their queries using a high-level language and then get their execution plans in a plain vanilla spreadsheet. No sophisticated database system, no spreadsheet plugging or macros are needed. The functions available in spreadsheets impose severe limitations on the algorithms one can implement. spreadsheet can implement, as we demonstrate, Depth-First-Search and Breadth-First-Search on graphs, thereby reaching beyond queries.
