Mihalis Yannakakis 
Perspectives on Database Theory

We try to give a flavor of the types of problems that database theory 
addresses, and review some of the themes of research in the area as
it evolved over the years. We will also try to point to some topics 
that connect to other areas.  (This is a preview of a talk to be given 
at the upcoming FOCS, for a general theory audience.)
