> A time-varying relation is just what it says: a relation that changes over time ... Critically, the full suite of existing SQL operators remain valid on time-varying relations

Any relation by definition is supposed to change in time. So why do we need to introduce a special kind of relations? The authors essentially confirm that there is no difference between classical relations and "time-varying" relations.

Also, it is not clear how does it relate to EPL (in CEP) which is also based on SQL.
