Computation of Cut Completions and Concept Lattices Using Relational Algebra and RelView

R. Berghammer

Several relation-algebraic algorithms for computing the cut completion of a partially ordered set are formally developed and afterwards generalized to the case of concept lattices. It is shown how the algorithms can be translated into the programming language of RelView and executed using this system. Furthermore, it is demonstrated how to obtain and draw Hasse diagrams of concept lattices as labeled directed graphs using the RelView system.
