Understanding Analysis Dimensions in a Multidimensional Object-Oriented Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
OLAP defines a set of data warehousing query tools characterized by providing a multidimensional view of data. Information can be shown at different aggregation levels (often called granularities) for each dimension. In this paper, we try to outline the benefits of understanding the relationships between those aggregation levels as PartWhole relationships, and how it helps to address some semantic problems. Moreover, we propose the usage of other Object-Oriented constructs to keep as much semantics as possible in analysis dimensions.

On Attributes of Objects in Object-Oriented Software Analysis
One of the modern paradigms to develop a system is object oriented analysis and design. In this paradigm, there are several objects and each object plays some specific roles. There is a sequence of activities to develop an analysis model. In the first step, we work in developing an initial use case model. Then in the second step, they identify a number of concepts and build a glossary of partic...
متن کاملObject-Oriented Method for Automatic Extraction of Road from High Resolution Satellite Images
As the information carried in a high spatial resolution image is not represented by single pixels but by meaningful image objects, which include the association of multiple pixels and their mutual relations, the object based method has become one of the most commonly used strategies for the processing of high resolution imagery. This processing comprises two fundamental and critical steps towar...
متن کاملAn Object Oriented Multidimensional Data Model for OLAP
Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) data is frequently organized in the form of multidimensional data cubes each of which is used to examine a set of data values, called measures, associated with multiple dimensions and their multiple levels. In this paper, we first propose a conceptual multidimensional data model, which is able to represent and capture natural hierarchical relationships among ...
متن کاملAn Object Oriented Approach to Multidimensional Database Conceptual Modeling (OOMD)
In the recent past, there has been an increasing interest in multidimensional databases (MDB) and On-line Analytical Processing (OLAP) scenarios. Several multidimensional models have been proposed in the last days. However, very few works have been focused on the area of multidimensional database conceptual modeling. Moreover, they are either conceptual extensions to the classical multidimensio...
متن کاملSpace as a Semiotic Object: A Three-Dimensional Model of Vertical Structure of Space in Calvino’s Invisible Cities
Following the “spatial turn” of the last 3 decades in humanities and social sciences and the structure of semiotic object, this research studies space as the main semiotic object of Calvino’s (1972) Invisible Cities. Significance of this application resides in examining the possibility of providing a more concrete methodology based on the integration of Zoran’s (1984) 3 vertical levels of const...
