Integrating and Supporting Entity Relationship and Object Role Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the conceptual integration and computer-based support of two important groups of conceptual data models, Entity Relationship Models and Object Role Models (e.g. NIAM). We perform conceptual integration using the conceptual data modelling language CoCoA to specify separate data models of individual notations. We then merge these into an integrated conceptual data model for both notations. These data models form the basis of the repository for an I-CASE tool supporting modelling with both notations, with full consistency management between the two notation data models.

متن کاملParadigm Translations in Integrating Manufacturing Information Using a Meta- model : The TSER Approach
Manufacturing information integration requires translations among various functional systems’ information models which are based on different paradigms (e.g., Entity-Relationship, Relational, and Object). In order to facilitate this potentially overwhelming task, a meta-model is needed to serve as the conceptual schema for models integration at both development phase and run-time. This paper pr...
متن کاملAbout Entities, Complex Objects and Object-oriented Data Models
Facilities for complex object modeling are nowadays needed in several areas of database applications (CAD/CAM, office automation, robotics, ...). Consequently, either new models are developed, or existing ones (relational, functional) are extended to better respond to this requirement. This paper intends to show that the entity-relationship approach may offer the required facilities, preserving...
