relation construction (Topic)

Relation construction and relational constructibility have to do with the ways that one relation is determined by an indexed family or a sequence of other relations, called the relation dataset. The relation dataset typically consists of a specified set of other relations, called the relational base or the relational components, plus a specified set of operations on relations, called the method of construction.

Relation composition and relation reduction are special cases of relation constructions.
