Deductive databases are more expressive than relational databases but less expressive than logic programming systems.
An important yardstick for describing the relative expressive power of formalisms in this area is the Chomsky hierarchy.
Power Rangers | Tyrone Power | power metal | Tower of Power | power | nuclear power | Mighty Morphin Power Rangers | Cat Power | British Sea Power | Scottish Power | Power metal | Electric power | American Electric Power | Absolute Power | People Power Revolution | Nuclear power | Electric power transmission | Nintendo Power | Greater Underwater Propulsion Power Program | Florida Power & Light | Tak and the Power of Juju | nuclear power plant | low-power broadcasting | Power Lunch | Paddy Power | Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie | Invision Power Board | Elf Power | electric power | Browning Hi-Power |
Lacroix and Pirotte proposed domain calculus, which is closer to first-order logic and which showed that both of these calculi (as well as relational algebra) are equivalent in expressive power.
