+\section{A use case: retrieving the transitive principles} 
+
+In this section we briefly present one on the many queries that we are using
+to test {\MathQL}.4: the one that retrieves the transitive principles stored
+in the {\HELM} library. The details on the {\RDF} metadata used to index the
+contents of the library can be found in \cite{Sch02,Gui03,GSC03}.
+This query, executed in {\MySQL}-mode on an AMD Athlon 1.5 GHz, retrieved 
+$55$ {\HELM} objects (out of $41451$) in $4.00s$ (the interpreter worked
+for $0.31s$) after having issued $2205$ {\SQL} queries to the underlying
+database. This test was executed on April 2 2004 by the Author.
