Multidimensional models are at the core of data warehouse systems, since they allow decision makers to early define the relevant information and queries that are required to satis...
Abstract. We demonstrate the manner in which high-level design requirements, e.g., as they correspond to the commonsensical conceptualisation of expert designers, may be formally s...
Abstract. Of particular concern in requirements engineering is the selection of requirements to implement in the next release of a system. To that end, there has been recent work o...
