referential integrity
<database>
A collection of properties which should be possessed by data in a relational database.
For example, in a database of family members, if we enter A as a spouse of B, we should also enter B as a spouse of A. Similarly, if we remove one end of the relationship we should also remove the other.Last updated: 1998-02-18
