We present a multi-dimensional database model, which we believe can serve as a conceptual model for On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP)-based applications. Apart from providing t...
The practical implementation and use of a mediator for fixed income securities analysis demonstrated the potential for extending the application of conceptual modeling from the sys...
This paper presents a new conceptual model, the XBWModel. Distributed computing is becoming a cost effective way to implement safety critical control systems. To support the devel...
Nowadays, many applications need data modeling facilities for the description of complex objects with spatial and/or temporal facilities. Responses to such requirements may be fou...
Abstract. This paper presents and motivates an extended ontology conceptual model which represents explicitly semantic information about concepts. This model results from explicitl...
A knowledge base is maintained by modifying its conceptual model and by using those modifications to specify changes to its implementation. The maintenance problem is to determine ...
The UWE methodology provides a systematic, UML-based approach for the development of Web applications. The CASE tool ArgoUWE supports the design phase of the UWE development proces...
Taxonomists classify biological specimens into groups (taxa) on the basis of similarities between their observed features ('characters'). The description of these 'c...
