Behavior consistent extension of object life cycles
Various notions of conformance between operations of a subtype and operations of a supertype have been proposed (e.g., contravariance...
Color-X Event Model: Integrated specification of the dynamics of individual objects
In this paper we show that specifying the dynamics of a system as a whole requires more information than...
Database design with behavior and views using parameterized Petri nets
We propose a method and a modeling tool for the design of relational databases. This conceptual design technique incorporates,...
SEER: Security enhanced entity-relationship model for secure relational databases
In this paper we propose extensions of the ER modeling concepts to address the conceptual modeling of security features...
Neural network technology to support view integration
The most difficult and time consuming activity to perform during view integration is to find correspondences between different view...
Database schema transformation and optimization
An application structure is best modeled first as a conceptual schema, and then mapped to an internal schema for...
Mapping an extended entity-relationship schema into a schema of complex objects
With the advent of object-oriented database systems, there is an urgent need to define a methodology for mapping a...
Binary representation of ternary relationships in ER conceptual modeling
Our paper seeks to provide an analysis of ternary relationship logic with an objective of identifying whether they can...
Variable sets and functions framework for conceptual modeling: Integrating ER and OO via sketches...
In the paper a graph-based specification language for semantic modeling is proposed. It is as handy as conventional graphical...
Unifying modeling and programming through an active, object-oriented, model-equivalent programming language
The intricate and complex structure of existing advanced database applications results in part from poor integration of existing models...
