Presentation Overview: This presentation descibes how to maintain multiple transitive closures in a taxonomy of connections. Transitive closure maintenance is driven by connection types. This advanced TCSQL features enables the use of more generalized superclass connections when writing queries.

Presentation Overview: This presentation describes how to maintain transitive closure temporally. This advanced TCSQL feature enables the transitive closure maintenance over time. As nodes and connections are added and deleted in a graph, the transitive of all changes is remembered, enabling the ability to ask how a graph looked in the past.

Presentation Overview: This presentation describes use of TCSQL for personnel management. Through the use of ontologies and transitive closure, this presentation demonstrates the power of inference queries over a skills database in determining the best candidate for a given task.

Presentation Overview: This presentation describes use of TCSQL for process management. Using an example of building a house, this presentation shows how to use the soft schema capabilities of TCSQL to define a process template and to instantiate this process template in the creation of a project plan.

Presentation Overview: This presentation describes use of TCSQL for project management. Powerful path queries are shown in deriving the critical path of a project. The use of polymorphic queries demonstrate the ability to write queries that never break and never need modification despite process and project modifications.

Presentation Overview: This presentation describes how to manage data privacy, security, and consent. Determining who has access to data and what data they can access is an enormous industry-wide problem. This presentation demonstrates a clever use of ontologies in providing an elegant solution to this problem.
