Object-oriented modelling with viewpoints

چکیده
Proposed object-oriented approaches are still in an initial stage of investigation and are mainly limited to modelling CAD applications which manipulate ill-deened, evolving and multifaceted objects. In this paper , we argue in favour of a model, called CEDAR, which aims at easing the modelling process by endowing object-oriented approach with a viewpoint notion. keywords: object-oriented databases, computer-aided-design (CAD) applications, viewpoint, simulation in an architectural application.

Viewpoints in Object-Oriented Databases
Proposed object-oriented approaches are still in an initial stage of investigation and are not powerfull enough to modelling Computer-Aided-Design (CAD) applications which manipulate ill-deened, evolving and multifaceted objects. In this paper, we argue in favour of a model, called CEDAR, which aims at easing the modelling process by endowing the object-oriented approach with a viewpoint notion.
متن کاملViewpoints: a framework for object oriented database modelling and distribution
The viewpoint concept has received widespread attention recently. Its integration into a data model improves the flexibility of the conventional object-oriented data model and allows one to improve the modelling power of objects. The viewpoint paradigm can be used as a means of providing multiple descriptions of an object and as a means of mastering the complexity of current database systems en...
متن کاملThe Viewpoint Mechanism for Object-oriented Databases Modelling, Distribution and Evolution
Over the past years, most of the research dealing with the object multiple representation and evolution has proposed to enrich the monolithic vision of the classical object approach in which an object belongs to one hierarchy class. In databases, much work has been done towards extending models with advanced tools such as view technology, schema evolution support, multiple classification, role ...
متن کاملRoles, Views and Viewpoints in Object-Oriented Databases
During the past years, the most of research works in object-oriented databases propose to enrich the monolithic vision of the traditional approach in which an object belongs to one and only one hierarchy class. They deal with the object multiple representation and evolution. In particular, role, view and viewpoint mechanisms have been intensively studied. In this paper, we propose the integrati...
متن کاملAn Approach to Visualise and Reconcile Use Case Descriptions from Multiple Viewpoints
The Unified Modelling Language (UML) is a visual approach to the analysis and design of object-oriented computer systems. However, when it comes to specifying requirements through use case descriptions we see two weaknesses in the current approach. The descriptions are textual (the success and acceptance of UML is largely due to its visual nature) and the group process for acquiring description...
