  1. Background on Datalog, seminaive evaluation, EDB vs. IDB, stratified semantics, logic in general, and models can be found in Ch. 3 of PDKS-I (Volume I of Principles of Database and Knowledge-Base Systems, Ullman, Computer Science Press, 1988).

  2. Volume II (PDKS-II) of the same book repeats some of the Datalog material, including the use of function symbols, and also contains material on conjunctive queries.

  3. AHV (The book Foundations of Databases, by S. Abiteboul, R. Hull, and V. Vianu, Addison-Wesley, 1996) has material on Datalog, conjunctive queries, and well-founded semantics.
