Method Schemas

An Integration Method for Design Schemas

The complexity of databases is increasing continually. The work of several designers become necessary. Therefore it is interesting to improve the design process with a new phase devoted to information integration , in order to take into account the designers'viewpoints. In this paper, we present an integration process which allows similarities to be discovered between the schemas under study. I...

Method Restructuring and Consistency Checking for Object-Oriented Schemas

In this paper we present a framework and algorithms for method evolution handling in object-oriented databases. Two levels of granularity for method evolution are described. The first level to the evolution of methods in the context of the class inheritance hierarchy, and concerns the semantics of the polymorphism. The second level relates to the behavioural evolution in which the chain of call...

Acknowledgements I would like to thank all the people helped me to make this thesis possible. First of all my thanks go to Petar Jovanovic for all the support he gave me throughout the work, and for great collaboration. Also, I am grateful to my advisor, Alberto Abelló, for believing in me, for his guidance and patience. I would also like to thank Oscar Romero for his useful advice, and all the...

Matching of XML Schemas and Relational Schemas

XML is widely used for data exchange between relational databases. Generic exchange tools are based on mappings between the elements of both schemas. Despite the benefits of using generic tools, the manual definition of the mappings can become a time consuming and error-prone task. Given this scenario we propose algorithms for the automatic matching of XML schemas(DTDs) and relational schemas. ...
