Abstract. Database applications are frequently faced with the necessity of representing time varying information and, particularly in the management of information systems, a few k...
Recent efforts in the Conceptual Modelling community have been devoted to properly capturing time-varying information, and several proposals of temporally enhanced Entity-Relation...
Data Warehouses (DWs) use an omnipresent time dimension for keeping track of changes in measure values. However, this dimension cannot be used to model changes in other dimensions...
: A pattern identifies a problem and provides the specification of a generic solution to that problem. Conceptual modelling patterns are aimed at representing a specific structure ...
This paper outlines a generic, core temporal object model that provides support for the modeling of temporal object roles. This model draws from notions introduced in some of our ...
