Abstract
COOL is a composite object-oriented declarative data base language
for use with $N sup 2 F$ relational data bases. COOL uses a construct
called a genitive relation to enable unambiguous specification and
quantification, both conventional and natural, of relationships.
A genitive relation is used in a manner corresponding to the genitive
case with noun objects in natural language. Instead of formal genitive
relation name syntax, a genitive case alias can be used to promote ease
of expression construction.
