This volume is the proceedings of the Second International§Conference on Deductive and Object-Oriented Databases§(DOOD). During the last decade, deductive and§object-oriented systems have received a great deal of§attention, but for the most part these two fields were§evolving independently of each other. Today there is a large§body of work suggesting that the deductive and§object-oriented paradigms complement each other.§The object-oriented paradigm is characterized by its view of§the data, whereby information is grouped around objects with§complex internal structure accessed via methods. The§declarative paradigm is centered around the idea that data§manipulation must be done through a declarative, logic-based§language. It is hoped that these two aspects, brought§together in one system, will provide an integrated framework§fora new database technology.§The DOOD conference brings together researchers and§developers in the fields of deductive and object-oriented§databases to stimulate technical discussion and accelerate§the integration of the two technologies. This volumecontains 28 contributed papers (selected from 98§submissions) and two invited papers by world-renowned§researchers.
