| Abstract | The class of unions of conjunctive queries (UCQ) has been shown to be particularly well-behaved for data exchange; its certain answers can be computed in polynomial time (in terms of data complexity). However, this is not the only class with this property; the certain answers to any Datalog program can also can be computed in polynomial time. The problem is that both UCQ and Datalog do not allow negated atoms, as adding an unrestricted form of negation to these languages yields to intractability. In this paper, we propose a language called $Datalog^{C(≠)}$ that extends Datalog with a restricted form of negation, and study some of its fundamental properties. In particular, we show that the certain answers to a $Datalog^{C(≠)}$ program can be computed in polynomial time (in terms of data complexity), and that every union of conjunctive queries with at most one inequality or negated relational atom per disjunct, can be efficiently rewritten as a $Datalog^{C(≠)}$ program in the context of data exchange. Furthermore, we show that this is also the case for a syntactic restriction of the class of unions of conjunctive queries with at most two inequalities per disjunct. This syntactic restriction is given by two conditions that are optimal, in the sense that computing certain answers becomes intractable if one removes any of them. Finally, we provide a thorough analysis of the combined complexity of computing certain answers to $Datalog^{C(≠)}$ programs and other related query languages. In particular, we show that this problem is Exptime-complete for $Datalog^{C(≠)},$ even if one restricts to conjunctive queries with single inequalities, which is a fragment of $Datalog^{C(≠)}$ by the result mentioned above. Furthermore, we show that the combined complexity is CoNexptime-complete for the case of conjunctive queries with k inequalities, for every k ≥ 2. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
